Notes

Mark 9:20

The demon did not speak (compare 1:24; 5:7, 9–10; see also 1:34; 3:11–12). Instead, it acted violently, just as the father had described (9:18).

Mark 9:14–29

This is the fourth and final time Jesus drives out demons in Mark's Gospel (1:21–28; 5:1–20; 7:24–30). The disciples could not drive out the demon, so Jesus performed the exorcism. This emphasizes the need for faith (see 2:5; 5:34; 10:52). This is another example of the great healing ability of Jesus and of the failure of the disciples (8:32–33; 9:5–7).
