Mark 9:29
And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
And he said unto them,.... Matthew, besides the following reason, assigns another, as given by our Lord, why they could not cast out the foul spirit, which was their unbelief; of which they were guilty in some sort, as well as the Jews, and the father of the child; but Mark omits it, and only relates this as the reason;
This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting; which they had not observed; See Gill on "Matthew 17:21".
