I pray everyone has had a blessed and relaxing Thanksgiving! I've got a question
For the last few days i've been in the book of Mark, stuck, I guess you could say. I felt I needed to read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John again, but paying close attention to how things are said and what things are said in each book.
In Mark 3:31-35 I stopped, i couldn't go any farther until today. Something bothered me about it and for days I haven't been able to put my finger on it. Then this morning the word "without" stood out to me.
This is what I came to and please if anyone has studied this or has anything to add please let me know, I might just be reading it wrong:
1. Mary and His brethren are on the outside, not among those that are sitting and standing around Him
2. They sent for Him instead of coming to Him. Many stories in the bible tell of all of them coming to Him but this one
3. The way He states who His mother and brethren are gives the impression that maybe they were not doing the will of God
4. In 4:11 He says something very telling and uses the same word "without" that is used in 3:31 and it's also used in Rev 22:15
Like I said I might have read it wrong but I wanted to see if anyone could bring new eyes to it lol, or see if someone else got stuck on it
