περιβλεψάμενος, having made a swift, indignant (μετʼ ὀργῆς) survey of His foes. συλλυπούμενος : this present, the previous participle aorist, implying habitual pity for men in such a condition of blindness. This is a true touch of Mk.'s in his portraiture of Christ. τῆς καρδίας : singular, as if the whole class had but one heart, which was the fact so far as the type of heart (hardened) was concerned.
