Mark 13:6
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
For many shall come in my name,.... Taking upon them the name of the Messiah: saying,
I am Christ; the word "Christ", is rightly supplied from
Matthew 24:5; otherwise in the original it is only, "I am"; which the Persic version doubles, reading it, "I am indeed, I am": he that was promised and expected, the true Messiah; he that was to come:
and shall deceive many; See Gill on "Matthew 24:5".
