SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:35
¶ Y respondiendo Jess decía, enseando en el Templo: ¿Cmo dicen los escribas que el Cristo es hijo de David?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Mark 12:35
Verse 35. How say the scribes] See Matt. xxii. 41, &c.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 35. And Jesus answered and said , etc..] To the Pharisees that were gathered together about him; (see Gill on Matthew 22:41). While he taught in the temple ; Whilst he was in the temple, and as he was teaching the people there; among other things in his doctrine, he put this question, how say the Scribes, that Christ is the son of David ? Not that Christ meant to deny or invalidate the truth of this; for the Messiah was certainly to be the son of David, and was; but he wanted to know, inasmuch as they commonly said, and instructed the people to believe, and it was in general believed by them, that he was David's son, how they could reconcile this to his being the Lord of David: or how they could give out, that he was only and merely the Son of David, when he was David's Lord. Matthew relates the matter thus; that Christ first put these questions to them, what they thought of the Messiah, and whose son he was; and that they immediately replied, he was the son of David: wherefore this question seems to be put upon that, with another along with it, how then doth David in spirit call him Lord ? (see Gill on Matthew 22:42-43).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 35-40 - When we attend to what the Scriptures declare, as to the person an offices of Christ, we shall be led to confess him as our Lord and God to obey him as our exalted Redeemer. If the common people hear thes things gladly, while the learned and distinguished oppose, the forme are happy, and the latter to be pitied. And as sin, disguised with show of piety, is double iniquity, so its doom will be doubly heavy.

Robertson's NT Word Studies
12:35 {How say the scribes} (pws legousin hoi grammateis). The opponents of Jesus are silenced, but he answers them and goes on teaching (didaskwn) in the temple as before the attacks began that morning (#11:27). They no longer dare to question Jesus, but he has one to put to them "while the Pharisees were gathered together" (#Mt 22:41). The question is not a conundrum or scriptural puzzle (Gould), but "He contents himself with pointing out a difficulty, in the solution of which lay the key to the whole problem of His person and work" (Swete). The scribes all taught that the Messiah was to be the son of David (#Joh 7:41). The people in the Triumphal Entry had acclaimed Jesus as the son of David (#Mt 21:9). But the rabbis had overlooked the fact that David in #Ps 110:1 called the Messiah his Lord also. The deity and the humanity of the Messiah are both involved in the problem. #Mt 22:45 observes that "no one was able to answer him a word."
