Notes
One day, the lamp (that is, Jesus; compare John 8:12) will reveal everything hidden. This includes every thought and secret action (Mark 13:26; 14:62; see Philippians 2:10–11). The time to listen is now, before this happens (Mark 4:9).
In this section, Mark gathers several teaching parables of Jesus. A parable is a short story that teaches a spiritual truth.
