Expositor's Greek Testament (Nicoll)

Mark 9:31

ἐδίδασκε γὰρ, etc.: gives the reason for this wish. It was the reason for the whole of the recent wandering outside Galilee: the desire to instruct the Twelve, and especially to prepare them for the approaching crisis. καὶ ἔλεγεν introduces the gist or main theme of these instructions. The words following: ὅτι ὁ υἱὸς, etc., are more than an announcement made in so many words once for all: they are rather the text of Christ's whole talk with His disciples as they went along. He was so saying (ἔλεγεν, imperfect) all the time, in effect. παραδίδοται, is betrayed, present; it is as good as done. The betrayal is the new feature in the second announcement.
