Mark 12:40
Share
Overview - Mark 12 | |
1 | In a parable of the vineyard let out to wicked husbandmen Christ foretells the reprobation of the Jews, and the calling of the Gentiles. |
13 | He avoids the snare of the Pharisees and Herodians about paying tribute to Caesar; |
18 | convicts the Sadducees of error, who denied the resurrection; |
28 | resolves the scribe, who questioned of the first commandment; |
35 | refutes the opinion that the scribes held of Christ; |
38 | bidding the people to beware of their ambition and hypocrisy; |
41 | and commends the poor widow for her two mites, above all. |
