Mark 3:25 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 3:25

And if a house be divided against itself
Any family, small or great,

that house cannot stand;
its contentions and discords will soon bring it down from a comfortable and flourishing situation, to a very distressed one; (See Gill on Matthew 12:25).

Mark 3:25 In-Context

23 So Jesus called the people together and taught them with stories. He said, "Satan will not force himself out of people.
24 A kingdom that is divided cannot continue,
25 and a family that is divided cannot continue.
26 And if Satan is against himself and fights against his own people, he cannot continue; that is the end of Satan.
27 No one can enter a strong person's house and steal his things unless he first ties up the strong person. Then he can steal things from the house.
