CommentAugustine of HippoPublic domainMark 15:20–28

That which follows, “But He received it not,” must mean, He received it not to drink, but only tasted it, as Matthew witnesses. And what the same Matthew relates, “He would not drink,” Mark expresses by, “He received it not,” but was silent as to His tasting it.
