Day 294-295: Mark 7-10, October 15th-16th, 2023

Jesus verbally spars with the Pharisees, the feeding of the 4000, the transfiguration, teaching on divorce, the calling of the rich young ruler, Jesus predicts His death and resurrection, and more miracles

Mark 10

2 Some Pharisees came to test Him. “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” they inquired. 3 “What did Moses command you?” He replied. 4 They answered, “Moses permitted a man to write his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away.” 5 But Jesus told them, “Moses wrote this commandment for you because of your hardness of heart. 6However, from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ 7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, 8 and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
