About this episode
This episode explores the complexities of Mark 13 and its implications for understanding Jesus' teachings on the end times.
Our text this Sunday, Mark 13 (and the parallel texts in Matthew 24 and Luke 21), is among some of the most difficult to understand in the Bible. Jesus appears to mix predictions of things that would occur during the lifetime of the disciples with things that would only occur at the very end of human history. Although we won’t have time to unravel all of the exegetical complexities of Mark 13 this week, we should be able to know and understand enough to stay awake, to be ready for our Lord’s Second Coming, and to live lives of faithful expectation.
