(31) Departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.--The better MSS. give "from the coasts of Tyre through Sidon." The latter city lay about twenty miles to the north. Accepting this reading, it marks the extreme limit of our Lord's journeyings--we can hardly say of His ministry, for there is no indication that He went there as a preacher of the Kingdom. We may however, perhaps, trace the feeling which prompted the visit in the words, "It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon," in Luke 10:14, and in the "Other sheep, not of this fold," in John 10:16.

Decapolis.--Another instance of St. Mark's use of a Roman nomenclature. St. Matthew says simply, "He departed thence, and came by the Sea of Galilee." For Decapolis, see Note on Matthew 4:25.

Verse 31. - According to the most approved authorities this verse should be read thus: And again he went out from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis. St. Matthew (Matthew 15:29) simply says that he "departed thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee." But from the more full statement of St. Mark we learn that he made a circuit, going first northwards through Phoenicia, with Galilee on his right, as far as Sidon; and thence probably over the spurs of Libanus to Damascus, mentioned by Pliny as one of the cities of the Decapolis. This would bring him probably through Caesarea Philippi to the eastern coast of the Sea of Galilee. Here, according to St. Matthew, he remained for a time in the mountainous district above the plain; choosing this position apparently for the sake of quiet and retirement, as also that, being conspicuous to all from the mountain, he might there await the multitude coming to him, whether for instruction or for healing.
