Gospel of Mark Chapter 1 Vs. 29

 Jesus Heals Many

Mark 1:29 “And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.”

And forthwith when... ST. Matthew tells us that on leaving the synagogue they entered into Peter’s house. St. Mark, with his peculiar sources of information, is aware that Andrew shared the house with his brother.

the house of... Proving they lived in the same house. Originally from Bethsaida (John 1:44), the two brothers had moved to Capernaum when Jesus established his headquarters there (see verse 21).

A GROUP OF MIRACLES

And straightway, when they were come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever; and straightway they tell Him of her: and He came and took her by the hand and raised her up; and the fever left her, and she ministered unto them. And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto Him all that were sick, and them that were possessed with devils. And all the city was gathered together at the door. And He healed many that were sick with divers' diseases and cast out many devils; and He suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew Him. Mark 1:29-34 (R.V.)

James and John... Only Mark mentions their presence at the healing of Peter’s mother-in-law.

Remember, earlier in this lesson that we mentioned that Peter’s home was on the edge of town there at Capernaum by the Sea of Galilee. Perhaps they came back to rest for the night; we are not told in the Scriptures.

Immediately euthys; cf. Mark 1:10 after leaving the synagogue Sabbath service, Jesus and the four disciples went to the nearby home of Simon Peter and Andrew. This house became something of a headquarters for Jesus when He was in Capernaum (cf. Mark 2:1; 3:20; 9:33; 10:10).
