December 3
Introduction
Mark 13:1–23: Jesus explains to the disciples what will happen to the Temple in Jerusalem, and he speaks about the persecutions his followers will suffer. The reference to “The Awful Horror” (verse 14) probably referred to the prophecy that someone would set up an idol in the holy place in the Temple and make people worship it instead of God (see Daniel 9:27, 11:31, 12:11).
Today’s Key Verse: Mark 13:10
[Jesus said]: “Before the end comes, the gospel must be preached to all peoples.”
Reflect
The word “apocalypse” comes from the Greek word apokalypsis, which means a revealing or an uncovering. Mark 13 is sometimes called the “little Apocalypse” because Jesus speaks of future events. What are your thoughts when reading what Jesus tells his followers?
Pray
Lord Jesus, empower me to be a faithful witness to you and to share the Good News of your love and salvation. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Mark 13:24–37: Jesus foretells of the coming of the Son of Man.
