Объяснение для детей

Imagine you're playing hide and seek in a big dark forest with your friends. If the person leading the game gets lost or scared away, all of you might run off to different places because you can't find each other anymore. That's what Jesus is saying will happen to him and his followers.

Исторический контекст

This verse appears in the Gospel of Mark, written around AD 60-70 by John Mark, a follower of Peter. It was meant for early Christian communities facing persecution. The prophecy Jesus references comes from Zechariah, about the suffering of a shepherd figure and its effect on his followers.
