Mark 8:1 - 8:26
Gospel of MarkSteve Gregg
In Mark 8, Jesus engages in conflict with the Pharisees over Jewish law and shows compassion by healing a demon-possessed girl and feeding a crowd of 4,000. He warns his disciples against the teachings of the Pharisees and Herod and emphasizes stewardship and balancing trust in God with taking responsibility. The story of the blind man being healed in two stages encourages people to keep faith and illustrates how physical healings represent spiritual transformations.
