‏ Mark 4:21-22

Verse 21. Is a candle-put under a bushel!] The design of my preaching is to enlighten men; my parables not being designed to hide the truth, but to make it more manifest.

Verse 22. For there is nothing hid, &c.] Probably our Lord means, that all that had hitherto been secret, relative to the salvation of a lost world, or only obscurely pointed out by types and sacrifices, shall now be uncovered and made plain by the everlasting Gospel. See Clarke on Mt 5:15; "Mt 10:26".
