Mark 4:27 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. And should sleep and rise night and day - That is, he should sleep by night, and rise by day; for so the words are obviously to be understood.

He knoweth not how - How a plant grows is a mystery in nature, which the wisest philosopher in the universe cannot fully explain.

Mark 4:27

27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.
