Study 12 From The Book of Mark is: Mark 6:6b-30
- What can we learn (a) from our Lord’s method of preparing His
disciples for the work which He intended them later more fully to do, and
(b) from such details as ‘two by two’, to take nothing for their journey’
(cf. Mt. 10:10) ‘enter a house’ and ‘stay there’ ‘if… they refuse to hear
you’, ‘they…preached that men should repent’?
- How would you sum up Herod’s character? What were the cause
of this failure?
Note. 6:7, 30. Another new
beginning—the first mission of the Twelve; and so, when they return to report,
they are temporarily called ‘apostles’ or ‘missioners’.
