Devotional: Mark 8:1-10

Today’s passage: Mark 8:1-10

Helpful thoughts:

  • This is a second miraculous feeding of a multitude of people.  Mark records both instances, here and in chapter 6.
  • It appears that this feeding of a multitude happens in Gentile territory.  Jesus has also come to “feed” the Gentiles (John 6:35).
  • These 4,000 people gathered and listened to Jesus’ teaching for 3 days straight with no food.  Jesus feeds them beyond satisfaction in more than one way.

Questions to consider:

  1. What differences can you find in this account from Mark 6:30-44 that indicate this is a distinct miracle?
  2. Why does verse 4 seem odd?  How would we suspect the disciples should have answered Jesus’ question?  Why didn’t they (Mark 6:52)?  How can this encourage us in our faithfulness as we proclaim the gospel message to the lost?
  3. What can we see in Jesus and learn from verse 3?  How might He have displayed His omniscience? What was His concern?  How did He show compassion?
