شرح للأطفال
Imagine you have a big garden that belongs to someone else, but they let you play there. One day, their child comes over, and instead of sharing the fun, some mean kids decide to push away the owner's child so they can keep playing alone without sharing. That’s what this story is about, but it teaches us about being kind to others.
السياق التاريخي
The Gospel of Mark was written around AD 70 by John Mark, a companion of Peter and Paul. This parable is part of Jesus' teaching directed at the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem who rejected his message.
