Mark 3:25

25 If a family is divided, it can't stand.

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 them over and spoke to them by using stories. He said, "How can Satan drive out Satan?
24 If a kingdom fights against itself, it can't stand.
25 If a family is divided, it can't stand.
26 And if Satan fights against himself, and his helpers are divided, he can't stand. That is the end of him.
27 In fact, none of you can enter a strong man's house and just take what the man owns. You must first tie him up. Then you can rob his house.
