When that evening came
The phrase "when that evening came" sets the scene for a transition in the narrative. In the Jewish context, evening marks the beginning of a new day, as per the creation account in Genesis where "there was evening, and there was morning." This transition from day to evening can symbolize a shift from the busyness of ministry to a time of reflection and deeper revelation. The evening also signifies a time of rest and trust, as the disciples are about to embark on a journey with Jesus, trusting Him even as darkness approaches.

He said to His disciples
The authority of Jesus is highlighted in this phrase. The Greek word for "said" is "λέγει" (legei), which implies a continuous or habitual action. Jesus' words are not just commands but are teachings and revelations. His communication with His disciples is intimate and direct, emphasizing the relationship between the Master and His followers. This phrase also underscores the importance of listening to Jesus' voice amidst the noise of the world, a call to discernment and obedience.

Let us cross
The invitation "let us cross" is significant. It is not a command but an inclusive invitation, indicating Jesus' desire for companionship and shared experience. The Greek word "διέλθωμεν" (dielthomen) suggests a journey or passage, often used in the context of moving from one state to another. This crossing can be seen as a metaphor for spiritual growth and transformation, a call to move from the familiar to the unknown, trusting in Jesus' presence and guidance.

to the other side
The phrase "to the other side" speaks of destination and purpose. In the context of the Sea of Galilee, the "other side" often represented Gentile territory, a place of mission and outreach beyond the Jewish community. This journey signifies the breaking of barriers and the expansion of the Gospel's reach. Spiritually, it challenges believers to step out of their comfort zones and embrace the mission field, trusting that Jesus leads them to places where His light is needed. The "other side" is not just a physical location but a call to new horizons in faith and ministry.

(35-41) And the same day.--Better, in that day. See Notes on Matthew 8:23-27. The connection of the events, as given by St. Mark, seems to be precise enough, but it differs widely from that in St. Matthew and St. Luke, and it must remain uncertain which was the actual order.

The other side.--The voyage was from Capernaum--from the west to the east side of the lake.

Verses 35, 36. - And on that day, - the day, that is, on which the parables were delivered, at least those recorded by St. Mark - when even was come, he saith unto them, Let us go over unto the other side. And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat. It was the boat from which he had been preaching. They made no special preparation. They did not land first to obtain provisions. It would have been inconvenient to go ashore in the midst of the crowd. They made at once, as he told them to do, for the other side. And other boats were with him. This is another interesting circumstance. Probably those who were in these boats had availed themselves of them to get nearer to the great Prophet, the boatmen themselves having seen the vast crowd that was gathered on the shore, and so having been attracted thither. Thus he had a large audience on the sea as well as on the land. And not it was so ordered that he was surrounded by a fleet and by a multitude of witnesses when he stilled the tempest.
