Beware the Poison of Leaven
Mark 8:11-21
- The Inquiry of the Pharisees
- You Say Leaven, We Think Bread
- Overcoming Spiritual Obtuseness
Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion
- Read Mark 8:11-21. Do the Pharisees genuinely want to see a sign from Jesus? Why or why not?
- What is the significance of Jesus “leaving” the Pharisees and the land of Galilee? Does the grace of God come to an end for some? Explain.
- Compare the disciples with the Pharisees. Do the disciples understand Jesus more than the Pharisees? Why do the disciples misunderstand Jesus?
- What is the leaven of the Pharisees and Herod? What is the modern day comparison? How do we watch out for this poisonous leaven?
