Notes

Mark 3:20

Jesus and his disciples could not even find time to eat. This shows how large the crowds were and how popular Jesus had become (3:7–9).

Mark 3:20–35

This story about Jesus and his family (3:20–21 and 31–35) surrounds a controversy story about Jesus driving out demons (3:22–30). This arrangement connects his family with the religious leaders, since both groups misunderstand him and stand against him.
