Mark 8

Mark 8:12

Hereupon saith Christ in a great sadness, This is an infidel perverse sort of people, miracles would be but cast away upon these, and therefore they shall not be afforded them upon asking, only that great miracle of my rising from death, typified by that which befell Jonas, Matt. xvi. 4, that shall be afforded them.

⁷ See note [a] on Matt. xvi.

⁸ This he saith to reproach us for our negligence in providing and bringing victuals with us.

⁹ Why should you think that my speech should relate to your having no bread? as if I were not able to supply that want: will you never understand nor consider what is done before you? will you always be thus senseless, thus unimprovable, that nothing can enter into you, making no use of eyes or ears or memory, after all this?

⁷ See note [b] on Matt. xvi. N
