The first day of the week [π ρ ω τ η σ α β β α τ ο υ]. A phrase which Mark does not use. In verse 2 of this chapter it is miav sabbatwn.

Out of whom he had cast seven devils. With Mark's well - known habit of particularizing, it is somewhat singular that this circumstance was not mentioned in either of the three previous allusions to Mary (xv. 40, 47; 16 1).

Out of whom [α φ η ς]. An unusual expression. Mark habitually uses the preposition ejk in this connection (i. 25, 26; Mark 5:8; Mark 7:26; Mark 7:29; Mark 9:25). Moreover, ajpo, from, is used with ejkballein, cast out, nowhere else in the New Testament. The peculiarity is equally marked if we read with some, par h=v.
