Bede

Catena Aurea by Aquinas (735)

(ubi sup.) Again, in a mystical sense, the setting of the sun signifies the passion of Him, who said, As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. (John 9:5) And when the sun was going down, more demoniacs and sick persons were healed than before: because He who living in the flesh for a time taught a few Jews, has transmitted the gifts of faith and health to all the Gentiles throughout the world.

Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

See the notes at Mat 8:16-17. And at even, when the sun did set - See the notes at Mat 8:16. Mar 1:33 All the city - A great part of the city. A great multitude from the city. Mar 1:34 And suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him - They knew that he was the Messiah. If they had spoken, they would have made that known to the people. Jesus was not desirous at that time that that should be publicly known, or that his name should be blazoned abroad.

The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, Sermon No. 1236: “The Best House-visitation” (lightly modernized text, CCEL edition) (1875)

WE SEE BEFORE US small beginnings and grand endings. One man is called by the voice of Jesus, and then another; the house wherein they dwell is consecrated by the Lord's presence, and by-and-by the whole city is stirred from end to end with the name and fame of the Great Teacher.

Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: Mark (lightly modernized text, Grace Gems edition) (1857)

These verses begin the long list of miracles which Mark's Gospel contains. They tell us how our Lord cast out devils in Capernaum, and healed Peter's wife's mother of a fever. We learn, in the first place, from these verses, the uselessness of a mere intellectual knowledge of religion . Twice we are specially told that the unclean spirits know our Lord. In one place it says, "they knew Him." to another, the devil cries out, "I know you who you are, the Holy One of God."
