Mark 6:14–44 A Tale of Two Kings
Excerpt
Mark has given us a picture here of two kings. One hears the truth, and locks it up; he feeds himself, but does not care for his people. The other pours himself out for those under his care, feeding the hungry around him while he suffers lack. And this is how the God of creation reveals himself to us — through Jesus, we see the care, love, and kindness of God for us lost sheep.
