In the Gospel of Mark, generally agreed to be the earliest Gospel, written around the year 70, [3] [4] Jesus predicts his death three times, recorded in Mark 8:31-33, 9:30-32 and 10:32-34. Scholars note that this Gospel also contains verses in which Jesus appears to predict his Passion and suggest that these represent the earlier traditions ...
Having crossed the Jordan, Jesus teaches the assembled crowd in his customary way, answering a question from the Pharisees about divorce. C. M. Tuckett suggests that Mark 8:34-10:45 constitutes a broad section of the gospel dealing with Christian discipleship and that this pericope on divorce (verses 1-12) "is not out of place" within it, although he notes that some other commentators have ...

Mark often has Jesus using analogies, metaphors or riddles, called parables by Mark. [24] Jesus ...
Jesus, after his three predictions of his Passion in Mark 8:31, 9:31, and 10:33-34, now says that he wants to live, but then tells God to do whatever God wants, submitting to God's will. Jesus shows total confidence in God, first seeming to say that God can change his plans even at this point if he wishes, and secondly that whatever God decides ...
Flagellation at the hands of the Romans is mentioned in three of the four canonical Gospels: John 19:1, Mark 15:15, and Matthew 27:26, and was the usual prelude to crucifixion under Roman law.
