Study 6 From The Book of Mark is: Mark 3:19b -35
1.
Note the official source and
the evil character of the opposition which Jesus now had to meet. His reply to
their accusation falls into three parts: (a) He disproves their assertion; (b)
He sets forth the true explanation of His power over evil spirits; (c) He gives
a solemn warning. State His argument in your own words.
2.
Jesus here distinguishes His
spiritual kinsmen from His human relatives.
Why did the latter misunderstand Him? How do the former reveal their
kinship with Him?
Notes
1.
Verses 19b-21 are connected
with verses 31-35. The words ‘his friends’ in verse 21 mean literally ‘they
from His home’, and might be translated ‘His family’.
2.
Verses 29, 30. The scribes’ sin was unforgivable because it
was a defiant rejection of God-given light.
They were knowingly calling good evil and holy unclean.
