Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Mark 1:16. As he walked by the sea, &c.] See Clarke on Matthew 4:18-22.
Andrew his brother — Instead of the common reading, αδελÏον Î±Ï ÏÎ¿Ï , his brother, the best MSS. and versions have αδελÏÎ¿Ï ÏÎ¿Ï ÏιμÏνοÏ, the brother of Simon, which should be received into the text. The most eminent critics approve of this reading.
