Gospel of Mark
Mark 10: 1 to 52

•	As we begin this chapter in Mark’s gospel, the ______________________ministry is brought to a close and the new focus is on Jerusalem and the climax of Jesus’ ministry in this city.  The visit of Jesus to this city is the last that Mark deals and the only visit recorded in ______________________Gospel.  (Some scholars think Mark telescoped two or even three visits into one without distinguishing them. John’s Gospel makes it clear that Jesus made more than one.

  Between 9:50 and 10:1
•	is most likely an interval between ______________________and ______________________months and the following events occurred which Mark omitted.
•	1) A discourse on Forgiveness (Mt 18: 15-35)  2) lesson on discipleship (Mt 18: 19-22)  3) the advice of Jesus’ brothers to declare Himself and His rejection of such advice (Jn 7:2-9)  4) Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem via ______________________ (Lk 9:51-56; Jn 7:10).

“The Later Judean Ministry”
•	recorded only by John 7:11-10:19 and Luke 10:1 to 13:21.  This ministry lasted about ______________________months, from the Feast of Tabernacles to the Feast of Dedication.  It is summarized by Mark 10:9 by the almost incidental mention of______________________.

Portions of the “Later Perean Ministry”
•	which in its entirety lasted about ______________________months.  It is recorded in John 10:40-11:54 and in Luke 13:22-18:14.  Not everything noted in these passages occurred in______________________, but it appears that this period of the Lord’s ministry was centered mainly there.

The Events Recorded in Mark 10:2-52
•	appear to be the closing events (at least in the main) in the ______________________Ministry, the district on the eastern side of the Jordan River.  This section is somewhat parallel to ______________________18:15-19:28 and Matthew 19:1-20:34.

Mark 10: 1
•	is a ______________________statement.  

Mark 10: 2-12
•	is a lesson on ______________________and______________________.
•	V. 2 gives the occasion: a question of the Pharisees and v. 10 a question of the disciples.
•	V. 10-12 is Jesus’ answer to the ______________________and
•	V. 3-9 is the answer the the disciples

Mark 10: 13 - 16
•	is a lesson  on ______________________and entering the Kingdom of Heaven
Mark 10: 17-27
•	is a lesson on the peril of ______________________
•	a) 17-22 is the occasion and
•	b) 23-27 is the lesson

Mark 10: 28-31
•	is Jesus’ teaching on ______________________and ______________________

Mark 10: 32-34
•	is another lesson on the ______________________

Mark 10: 35 -45
•	is Jesus’ rebuke of ____________________________________________ of James and John

Mark 10: 46-52
•	is Mark’s record of Jesus’ healing of the ______________________man at ______________________
•	Mark and Luke mention only one blind man (Mt 20:30 says there are two).  The seeming discrepancy is easily removed if we suppose that Mark and Luke call attention only to the more conspicuous of the two men.

Mark and Matthew (20:29)
•	describe the miracle as occurring as Jesus “went out from______________________”;  Luke 18:35 says that it happened “as he drew nigh unto Jericho”.  Perhaps  Mark and Matthew mean that the miracle occurred as Jesus left ______________________Jericho; Luke, no contradicting them but looking at it from another perspective, describes the miracle as occurring when Jesus approaches ______________________Testament Jericho.  

An Older View
•	understood the appeal for ______________________to have been made on the approach to the city but the actual healing to have occurred as Jesus left the city.

Between Mark 10:52 to 11:1
•	we should consider the following to have happened:
•	1) The visit of Jesus with ______________________ (Luke 19:1-10)
•	2) The Parable of the ______________________ (Luke 19: 11-28)
•	3) Jesus arrival at ______________________ (John 11:55-12:1; 9-11)
