Mark 3:25

25 Similarly, a family splintered by feuding will fall apart.

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 Jesus called them over and responded with an illustration. “How can Satan cast out Satan?” he asked.
24 “A kingdom divided by civil war will collapse.
25 Similarly, a family splintered by feuding will fall apart.
26 And if Satan is divided and fights against himself, how can he stand? He would never survive.
27 Let me illustrate this further. Who is powerful enough to enter the house of a strong man like Satan and plunder his goods? Only someone even stronger—someone who could tie him up and then plunder his house.
