Mark 3:24 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 3:24

And if a kingdom be divided against itself
Any of the kingdoms of this world, and the kingdom of "Satan":

Mark 3:24 In-Context

22 The scribes who had come from Jerusalem said, "Beelzebul is in him," and "He forces demons out of people with the help of the ruler of demons."

23 Jesus called them together and used this illustration: "How can Satan force out Satan?

24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot last.

25 And if a household is divided against itself, that household will not last.

26 So if Satan rebels against himself and is divided, he cannot last. That will be the end of him.
