NASB | Mark 6:52 for they had not gained any insight from the incident of the loaves, but their heart was hardened. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Mark 6:52 because they had not understood [the miracle of] the loaves [how it revealed the power and deity of Jesus]; but [in fact] their heart was hardened [being oblivious and indifferent to His amazing works]. |
Bible Question: Why in verse 6 of Mark under the 'Jesue Walks on the Water,' in line 52 why is that randomly placed there? And what exactlly does it mean and why were there hearts hardened...what does that mean...I don't get it? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Tarleton_gal! First of all, Mark 6:52 isn't randomly place where it is! God put it exactly where He wanted it. :-) The point is simply that the miracle of the loaf and fishes should have clued the disciple in concerning the identity of Jesus. However, they did not get it, so they were amazed when He also walked on the water. Mark speaks of the disciples hardness of heart in 6:52 and 8:17. Both times, he uses the phrase in the context of the disciple failing to understand something that they should have. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
