Mark 3 UNDERSTANDING
To my understanding, (ha) i think that the pharisees are just out to get him; because they feel threatened. Jesus is attracting a lot of crowds and people have began to follow him. If i was in power and some guy came out of no were and started swerving people to follow them, i would be pretty mad to. Just the fact that somebody else is taking power away from you, it would upset any normal person. and if it happened for so long and you were extremely power hungry, kind of like Hitler; you might eventually feel like you need to rise above that certain person. So that's what i think the Pharisees thought of Jesus like he was stealing their spot light and they wanted it back. They were all just a bunch of Hitlers.

ReplyDeleteMaybe your last sentence was a bit strong. :-)
All that you wrote was basically say one thing about your understanding that the Pharasees were "threatened" and upset about it.
Were they Jealous too?
Did you understand what was going on when they told Jesus his family was outside?
Did you understand anything about the need for a boat for Jesus to get into? Was he needing to get away or was there another reason?
Just want you to keep looking. There is usually more than one UNDERSTANDING to discover.
