Tree of Life Version

Mark 3:20-35

20Then He comes into a house, and again a crowd gathers so they couldn’t even eat.

21When His family heard about this, they went out to take hold of Him; for they were saying, “He’s out of His mind!”

22The Torah scholars who came down from Jerusalem said, “He’s possessed by beelzebul,” and, “By the ruler of demons He drives out demons.”

23He called them and began speaking to them in parables: “How can satan drive out satan?

24If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

25And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.

26And if satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand but his end has come.

27“But no one can enter a strong man’s house to ransack his property, unless he first ties up the strong man. Then he will thoroughly plunder his house.

28Amen, I tell you, all things will be forgiven the sons of men, the sins and whatever blasphemies they utter;

29but whoever slanders the Ruach ha-Kodesh never has release, but is guilty of an eternal sin!”

30For they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”

31Then His mother and brothers come. Standing outside, they sent word to Him, summoning Him.

32A crowd was sitting around Him, and they tell Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers are outside looking for You.”

33Answering them, He said, “Who are My mother and My brothers?”

34Looking at those sitting in a circle around Him, He said, “Here are My mother and My brothers!

35For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother and sister and mother.”
