Gill's Notes on the Bible

And preached, saying, there cometh one mightier than I after me,.... From whence it appears, that John was a preacher of Jesus Christ; of the dignity of his person, the excellency of his office, and the nature and importance of his work:

the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose; expressing the great veneration he had for him, and the great sense he had of his own unworthiness, to be concerned in the lowest and meanest service of life for him; and that he was far from being worthy of the high honour done him, to be his messenger and forerunner; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the notes at Matthew 3:3, Matthew 3:5-6, Matthew 3:11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Mark 1:7. The latchet of whose shoes — The shoe of the ancients was properly only a sole tied round the foot and ankle with strings or thongs. Matthew 3:11; Matthew 3:11.
