Mark 5:19

Context
5:19 But 1  Jesus 2  did not permit him to do so. Instead, he said to him, “Go to your home and to your people and tell them what the Lord has done for you, 3  that he had mercy on you.”

Mark 11:23

Context
11:23 I tell you the truth, 4  if someone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.

1 tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

2 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 sn Jesus instructs the man to declare what the Lord has done for him, in contrast to the usual instructions (e.g., 1:44; 5:43) to remain silent. Here in Gentile territory Jesus allowed more open discussion of his ministry. D. L. Bock (Luke [BECNT], 1:781) suggests that with few Jewish religious representatives present, there would be less danger of misunderstanding Jesus’ ministry as political.

4 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
