60IN60 Day 34 - Sat Feb 8

It's Day 34 and we're in Mark 14.


Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verse 65 - The self-restraint He showed here is amazing.


Help:
- Verse 7 - This is not justification for ignoring the poor.  It's simply a statement acknowledging that what Jesus was about to go through was an unusual situation and that this expensive gift was needed in that moment.
- Verses 51-52 - This is probably a reference to Mark, the author of this gospel.  In all the church Easter plays that I've seen in my life, I have never once seen this part of the story portrayed. ;-)


If you want to read the chapter online, here's a link.

Your Questions:
- "Why the transfiguration? What is the significance of this?" - I think the main purpose was to reveal to some of the disciples the true nature of Christ.  It was another sign of who He really was.
