Seeing Jesus in the Gospel of MarkПримерок

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Look Closely:

- As Jesus engaged with people, He asked a lot of questions and people asked Him a lot of questions. In response, Jesus often employed a common Jewish teaching method, responding vaguely or with a new question.

- Who is asking questions in this chapter?

- What kind of questions did the Pharisees ask? How did their circumstances and motivations differ from those of the disciples? How did they differ from the requests of the man in verse 17 and the blind man?

- Take another look at how Jesus responded to the questions. What did He say? What might you have expected Him to say, but He didn’t?

- How were Jesus’ responses to the various questions (and people) similar? How were they different?
