Vincent: Mar 10:45 - For many

Wesley: Mar 10:45 - A ransom for many

Even for as many souls as needed such a ransom, 2Co 5:15.

JFB: Mar 10:45 - For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many

"instead of many," that is, "In the kingdom about to be set up, this principle shall have no place. All My servants shall there be equal; and the only greatness known to it shall be the greatness of humility and devotedness to the service of others. He that goes down the deepest in these services of self-denying humility shall rise the highest and hold the chiefest place in that kingdom; even as the Son of man, whose abasement and self-sacrifice for others, transcending all, gives Him of right a place above all!" As "the Word in the beginning with God," He was ministered unto; and as the risen Redeemer in our nature He now is ministered unto, "angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto Him" (1Pe 3:22); but not for this came He hither. The Served of all came to be the Servant of all; and His last act was the grandest Service ever beheld by the universe of God--"HE GAVE HIS LIFE A RANSOM FOR MANY!", &c. Many" is here to be taken, not in contrast with few or with all, but in opposition to one--the one Son of man for the many sinners.

Poole: Mar 10:42-45 - they which are accounted to rule

Ver. 42-45. See Poole on "Mat 20:25" , and following verses to Mat 20:28 , where we had the same almost verbatim. Those that think it worth the while to inquire what critical men say about that phrase, oi dokountev arcein , which we translate they which are accounted to rule, may find it in Pool’ s Synopsis Criticorum. When all is said, doubtless the oi arcontev in Matthew, and oi dokountev arcein, and Luke’ s oi basileiv , signify the same persons. And our translators might as justifiably have translated those words, the rulers, as

they which are accounted to rule which is a translation the active participle will hardly bear.

Gill: Mar 10:45 - For even the son of man // came not to be ministered unto // but to minister // and to give his life a ransom for many

For even the son of man,.... That is, Christ himself; a name by which he frequently goes both in the Old and New Testament to the arguments before produced, Christ adds his own example, to teach his disciples humility and lowliness of mind and to check their ambitious views and desires:

came not to be ministered unto: not but that he was ministered unto even by the angels of God; who ministered to him in the wilderness, after he had been tempted by Satan; and he was also ministered unto by some women out of their substance; but these show the low estate he was in to stand in need of such ministrations: here the sense is that he did not appear as an earthly prince, with a fine equipage, a large retinue and attendance,

but to minister; to be a servant, as he is in his mediatorial office and capacity: he was sent, and came as the servant of the Lord; and he ministered, in his prophetic office, the Gospel unto men; and went about in the form of a servant, doing good, ministering medicine both to the souls end bodies of men: but the great work he came about, was the work of man's redemption; which he willingly and cheerfully undertook, diligently and faithfully prosecuted, and has completely finished; to which respect is had in the next clause:

and to give his life a ransom for many; even for all the elect of God, to redeem them from sin, Satan, and the law; and secure them from the wrath of God, and eternal death; and this he has done, by laying down his life as the ransom price for them; See Gill on Mat 20:28.
