People's Commentary (NT)
Mark 16:17
These signs shall follow them that believe. It is generally held
that this is a promise limited to the apostolic age and to a few of the
disciples of that age. Perhaps the plural "them" does not have for its
antecedent the singular "he" in Mark 16:16, but the plural "them" in
Mark 16:14. If it does not, why is the number changed in
Mark 16:15 The grammatical construction requires us to look to
Mark 16:14 for the antecedent of "them" in Mark 16:17.
In Mark 16:14 the apostles are "upbraided for their unbelief because
they believed not them who had seen him after he had arisen". They are
commended to go and tell the glad story, and assured that miraculous
credentials shall be given to those of "them who believe" and tell the
wonderful tidings.
In my name shall they cast out demons, etc. See Mark 16:14-16
Acts 2:4 5:16 8:7 16:18 28:3.
