Mark 6:11

“And, whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, etc..] Who would neither take them into their houses, nor hear what they had to say to them: when ye depart thence; from the house or the city, or town, in which it is, shake off the dust under your feet, for a testimony against them; that they had been with them, and attempted to preach the Gospel to them, but they despised and rejected it; wherefore they departed from them as an unworthy people, against whom the dust of their feet would rise as a testimony, in the day of judgment; (see Gill on “<401014>Matthew 10:14”). Verily, I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.…”

“See these verses fully explained in the notes at Matthew 10:9-15. In Matthew 10:5 they were commanded not to go among the Gentiles or Samaritans. Mark omits that direction, perhaps, because he was writing for the “Gentiles,” and the direction might create unnecessary difficulty or offence. Perhaps he omits it also because the command was given for a temporary purpose, and was not in force at the time of his writing. return to 'Top of Page'”

“6:11 The shaking of dust from the feet is best interpreted as a symbolic act pronouncing God’s judgment upon those who rejected the apostles’ preaching (cp. Acts 18:6), which was really a rejection of Jesus and of God, who sent him (9:37).”
