Gill's Notes on the Bible
But he knowing their thoughts,.... Being God omniscient,
said unto them; the following parables, as they are called in Mark 3:23 or proverbial expressions, very pertinent to the purpose, and sufficient to set aside the base calumnies of the Pharisees:

and an house divided against an house, falleth. The Persic version renders it, "an house divided from the foundation, falls"; the sense is, a family, in which one part is opposed to the other, issues in the ruin of both; Mark 3:23- :,
Mark 3:23- :,
Mark 3:23- :.
