From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples--that is, with an explicitness and frequency He had never observed before. how that he must go unto Jerusalem and suffer many things--"and be rejected," (Mar 8:31; Luk 9:22). of the elders and chief priests and scribes--not as before, merely by not receiving Him, but by formal deeds. and be killed, and be raised again the third day--Mark (Mar 8:32) adds, that "He spake that saying openly"--"explicitly," or "without disguise."
