- Mark 1:29-34
Read Mark 1:32 with 1:29-34. This verse moves Mark 1:29-34's connected sequence forward at Mark 1:32 through the report, “And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils”. The complete unit's controlling movement is: Jesus raises Simon's fevered mother-in-law, who resumes service, and after sunset heals and releases many gathered at the house while silencing spirits who recognize him.
Why It Needs Context
This verse moves Mark 1:29-34's connected sequence forward at Mark 1:32 through the report, “And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils”. Its connective or scene-specific force depends on Mark 1:29-34; isolating it would detach the selected action, response, speaker, or referent from the unit that explains it.
