bb warfield on anger of jesus in mark 3

What is meant is, not that his anger was modified by grief, his reprobation of the hardness of their hearts was mingled with a sort of sympathy for men sunk in such a miserable condition. What is meant is simply that the spectacle of their hardness of heart produced in Jesus the deepest dissatisfaction, which passed into angry resentment. The hardness of the Jews’ heart, vividly realized, hurt Jesus; and his anger rose in repulsion of the cause of his pain. There are two movements of feeling brought before us here. There is pain which the gross manifestation of the hardness of heart of the Jews inflicted on Jesus. Bb Warfield
