Gill's Notes on the Bible
And at even, when the sun did set,.... At which time the Jews' sabbath was ended; :-, for this was a sabbath day, Mark 1:21, when according to them, it was not lawful to heal; nor did they offer to bring their sick to him on that day; but the last of the two evening days being come, and the sun set, the sabbath was over; and therefore being under no restraint on account of that,
they brought unto him all that were diseased; with any sort of disease whatever, even all that were in their city;
and them that were possessed with devils. The Persic version renders it "epileptics", such as were troubled with the falling sickness, as many of those were, whose bodies the devils possessed.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes at Matthew 8:16-17.
And at even, when the sun did set - See the notes at Matthew 8:16.
Mark 1:33
All the city - A great part of the city. A great multitude from the city.
Mark 1:34
And suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him - They knew that he was the Messiah.
If they had spoken, they would have made that known to the people. Jesus was not desirous at that time that that should be publicly known, or that his name should be blazoned abroad. The time had not come when he wished it to be promulgated that he was the Messiah, and he therefore imposed silence on the evil spirits.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 32. When the sun did set — Matthew 8:14; Matthew 8:14.
