“And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.”
King James Version (KJV)
9:17 New - Fermenting wine will soon burst those bottles, the leather of which is almost worn out. The word properly means vessels made of goats' skins, wherein they formerly put wine, (and do in some countries to this day) to convey it from place to place. Put new wine into new bottles - Give harsh doctrines to such as have strength to receive them.
9:18 Just dead - He had left her at the point of death, #Mark 5:23|. Probably a messenger had now informed him she was dead. #Mark 5:22|; Luke 8:41.
9:20 Coming behind - Out of bashfulness and humility.
