ExplanationCommentary
Verse 2. Saint Mark says very early, the sun being now risen, whereas Saint John tells us that it was yet dark. But when Saint Mark says the sun was risen, he means that it began, by its approach to the horizon, to enlighten the heavens, at which time there is still darkness remaining, (according to Saint John) which decreases as light approaches the earth. Saint Augustine.
