EXPOSITORY (ENGLISH BIBLE)
1:29-39 Wherever Christ comes, he comes to do good. He cures, that we may minister to him, and to others who are his, and for his sake. Those kept from public ordinances by sickness or other real hinderances, may expect the Saviour's gracious presence; he will soothe their sorrows, and abate their pains. Observe how numerous the patients were. When others speed well with Christ, it should quicken us in seeking after him. Christ departed into a solitary place. Though he was in no danger of distraction, or of temptation to vain-glory, yet he retired. Those who have the most business in public, and of the best kind, must yet sometimes be alone with God.All the city - A great part of the city. A great multitude from the city.33. And all the city was gathered together at the door—of Peter's house; that is, the sick and those who brought them, and the wondering spectators. This bespeaks the presence of an eye-witness, and is one of those lively examples of word-painting so frequent in this Gospel. See Poole on "Mark 1:32"

And all the city was gathered together at the door. That is, the inhabitants of the city of Capernaum, a very great number of them at least, who having either heard of, or seen the dispossession of the unclean spirit in the synagogue in the daytime; and being willing to see what miraculous cures might be wrought by Christ upon the diseased and possessed that were brought to him, got together in great crowds about the door of the house of Simon and Andrew where Jesus now was. And all the city was gathered together at the door.
EXEGETICAL (ORIGINAL LANGUAGES)
Mark 1:33. ὅλη ἡ πόλις, a colloquial exaggeration.—πρὸς τ. θύραν: the door of Peter’s house. Meyer thinks that in the interval Jesus had gone to His own house, and that it was there the people gathered. But does Mark’s gospel think of Jesus as having a residence in Capernaum? Weiss answers in the negative.

33. at the door] i. e. the door of St Peter’s house, “the door so well known to him who supplied St Mark with materials for his Gospel.” St Matthew connects the cures now wrought with the prophecy of Isaiah 53:4, Himself took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses.

Mark 1:33. Ὅλη, the whole) the sick, the bearers of them, and the spectators.

Verses 33, 34. - The whole city was gathered together at the door. This would probably be the outer door in the wall, opening into the street; so that this need not be regarded as a hyperbolic statement. It is evidently the description of an eye-witness, or of one who had it from an eye-witness. He healed all that had need of healing, and he suffered not the devils to speak, for the reasons. assigned at ver. 25. Mark 1:33All the city was gathered together at the door

Peculiar to Mark.
