Greetings Manahan! Here is how the Bible Knowledge Commentary answers your question. ************* The two concessions of a staff and sandals are unique to Mark. Both are forbidden in Matthew 10:9-10, and the staff is forbidden in Luke 9:3. Matthew used ktaomai (“to procure, acquire”), instead of airoµ (“to take”); so the disciples were not to acquire additional staffs or sandals—but to use the ones they already had. Mark and Luke both use airoµ, “to take or carry along.” But Luke says, “Take nothing for the journey—no staff (rhabdon),” presumably no additional staff; while Mark says, “Take nothing for the journey except (cf. Mark 6:5) a staff (rhabdon),” presumably the one already in use. Each writer stressed a different aspect of Jesus’ instructions. ***************** Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Hi, Tim, And wasn't the main point anyway "to go and preach?" If all agree to the main point, that of go and preach, then the incidentals should not be so important. cheri |
