Contextual Overview
43 And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and cured the boy and restored him to his father. 44 And all were astonished at the mighty power of God. But while all wondered at all the things he did, he said to his disciples: Lay you up in your hearts these words, for it shall come to pass that the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men. 45 But they understood not this word: and it was hid from them, so that they perceived it not. And they were afraid to ask him concerning this word. 46 And there entered a thought into them, which of them should be greater. 47 But Jesus seeing the thoughts of their hearts, took a child and set him by him, 48 And said to them: Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me; and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me. For he that is the lesser among you all, he is the greater. 49 And John, answering, said: Master, we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name: and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us. 50 And Jesus said to him: Forbid him not: for he that is not against you is for you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And John answered and said, Master,.... The Syriac and Persic versions read, "our Master":
we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and we forbad him;
:-
Because he followeth not with us; the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions read, "because he followeth not thee with us"; did not join in company with them, and follow Christ along with them, and as they did.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes at Matthew 18:1-5. Compare Mark 9:33-38.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 49. We forbade him — See this subject considered on Mark 9:38, &c.
