Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 10. - When he was alone. These words do not appear in St. Matthew's account. He simply says that " the disciples came and said unto him." This must have been upon some other occasion. It could not have been when be was preaching from the boat; for St. Mark says, they that were about him with the twelve. He is the only evangelist who notices this. We must not forget that, besides the twelve, there were seventy other disciples. They asked of him the parables (τὰς παραβολάς), according to the best reading. The inquiry was a general one, although St. Mark here gives the explanation of one only.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) They that were about him.--In St. Matthew, simply, "the disciples." Here the presence of others besides the Twelve is directly asserted.
