Darby's translation notes (1890)

Mark 1:24

1:24 Eh! (e-2) The imperative of the verb 'to let alone,' but used as an interjection, as a cry of dissatisfaction. Nazarene? (f-11) The force of 'Nazarene' here is simply, I apprehend, 'of Nazareth.' The word is different from that translated 'Nazaraean' in Matthew 2:23 and elsewhere.
