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 12 is the twelfth chapter of the Gospel of Mark in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.It continues Jesus' teaching in the Temple in Jerusalem, and contains the parable of the Wicked Husbandmen, Jesus' argument with the Pharisees and Herodians over paying taxes to Caesar, and the debate with the Sadducees about the nature of people who will be resurrected at the end of time.
