Mark 7

His Glory

Mark 7

The conflict between the Jewish tradition and Jesus teachings continue in Mark 7. In this chapter Jesus states that what one eats does not necessarily define what that person feels or thinks.

Mark 1

Mark 1 tells the story of Jesus’ adult life. Mark includes the story of John the Baptist, a man who baptized people in the Jordan River. John tells the people around him of the coming of a man who will be much more powerful than himself, saying that this man will baptize them a divine spirit, rather than water alone

Mark 2

Mark 2 focuses on one of the events from Jesus’ life when He was preaching and performing miracles. During this time there was a man who suffered from palsy who was brought to Jesus.

Mark 3

Mark 3 first addresses a conflict between Jesus and the Pharisees regarding healing on the Sabbath. It also talks about Jesus’ naming of the twelve Apostles.
