G.A. Chadwick
1840 - 1923

      George Alexander Chadwick is best known for his Bible expository.

      His commentary on the Gospel of Mark is scholarly, insightful and valuable. Today's commentaries, many of them, are scholarly, but lack the warmth and 'aliveness' of this work, first published in 1896.

And straightwa ...read
Gospel of Mark, 3 - AT THE JORDAN cont. (MARK 1:7-11)
      Now it is to be observed that we never read of Jesus being caught up into heaven for a space, like St. Paul or St. John. What we read is, that while on earth the Son of man is in Heaven (John 3:13), [1] for heaven is the manifestation of God, whose truest glory was revealed in the grace and truth of Jesus. Along with this revelation, the Holy Sp ...read

Gospel of Mark, 7 - MIRACLES (MARK 1:23)
      "And straightway there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit." MARK 1:23 (R.V.) WE have just read that Christ's teaching astonished the hearers. He was about to astonish them yet more, for we have now reached the first miracle which St. Mark records. With what sentiments should such a narrative be approached? The evangelist connect ...read
Gospel of Mark, 8 - THE DEMONIAC (MARK 1:23-28)
      "And straightway there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, saying, What have we to do with Thee, Thou Jesus of Nazareth? art Thou come to destroy us?

Gospel of Mark, 13 - THE SON OF MAN (MARK 2:10)
      "The Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins." MARK 2:10 (R.V.) WHEN asserting His power to forgive sins, Jesus, for the first time in our Gospel, called Himself the Son of man.

Gospel of Mark, 20 - THE APOSTLE JUDAS (MARK 3:19)
      "And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed Him." MARK 3:19 (R.V.) THE evidential value of what has been written about the apostles will, to some minds, seem to be overborne by the difficulties which start up at the name of Judas. And yet the fact that Jesus chose him - that awful fact which has offended many - is in harmony with all that we see ar ...read
