All Commentaries on Mark 6:3 Go To Mark 6
Justin Martyr
AD 165
Jesus came as the son of a carpenter. He was not physically attractive, just as the prophets had predicted of him. He was merely a carpenter, making ploughs and yokes, and instructing us by such symbols of righteousness to avoid an inactive life.
