Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerses 28, 29. - The impression produced on the multitudes. With the exception of the formula, "It came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings" (cf. Matthew 11:1, note), the words are almost identical with Mark 1:22 (Luke 4:31, 32), but the time is, as it seems, later. The oral statement of an impression which was probably often produced is affirmed of slightly different times. Verse 28. - Sayings; Revised Version, words (ver. 24, note). The people; Revised Version, the multitudes (οἱ ὄχλοι). In contrust to the scribes and ruling classes. Were astonished (cf. Acts 13:12). At his doctrine; at his teaching (Revised Version).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(28) When Jesus had ended these sayings.--The words again point to the conclusion that the Evangelist believed that he had been recording one continuous discourse.The people were astonished at his doctrine.--Better, at his teaching; with greater prominence given, as the words that follow show, to its manner than to its substance.
