Contextual Overview
5 Jesus said to them, "Be careful! Don't let anyone fool you. 6 Many people will come and use my name. They will say, ‘I am the Messiah,' and they will fool many people. 7 You will hear about wars that are being fought. And you will hear stories about other wars beginning. But don't be afraid. These things must happen before the end comes. 8 Nations will fight against other nations. Kingdoms will fight against other kingdoms. There will be times when there is no food for people to eat. And there will be earthquakes in different places. These things are only the beginning of troubles, like the first pains of a woman giving birth. 9 "You must be careful! There are people who will arrest you and take you to be judged for being my followers. They will beat you in their synagogues. You will be forced to stand before kings and governors. You will tell them about me. 10 Before the end comes, the Good News must be told to all nations. 11 Even when you are arrested and put on trial, don't worry about what you will say. Say whatever God tells you at the time. It will not really be you speaking. It will be the Holy Spirit. 12 "Brothers will turn against their own brothers and hand them over to be killed. Fathers will hand over their own children to be killed. Children will fight against their own parents and have them killed. 13 All people will hate you because you follow me. But those who remain faithful to the end will be saved.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For many shall come in my name,.... Taking upon them the name of the Messiah: saying,
I am [Christ]; the word "Christ", is rightly supplied from
Matthew 24:5; otherwise in the original it is only, "I am"; which the Persic version doubles, reading it, "I am indeed, I am": he that was promised and expected, the true Messiah; he that was to come:
and shall deceive many; Matthew 24:5- :.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Mark 13:6. Saying, I am — The Christ, is added by eight MSS., Coptic, Armenian, Saxon, and four of the Itala.
