Outline of Mark 8

  1. Jesus Feeds 4000
    1. 7 loaves and 2 fish
    2. 7 leftover baskets
  2. Pharisees Demand a Sign
    1. Pharisees challenge Jesus
    2. Jesus tells his disciples to "beware the yeast of the Pharisees"
    3. Disciples get confused and think Jesus wants more bread
    4. Note: This is especially comical since Jesus just fed 4000!
  3. Blind Man Healed
    1. First sees trees
    2. Then sees clearly
    3. Question: Why does this healing include two steps? Jesus could have healed the man immediately.
  4. Peter Says Jesus Is the Christ
    1. Peter confesses Jesus' true identity
    2. Jesus explains that he will die
    3. Peter pulls Jesus aside to rebuke him
    4. Jesus calls Peter "Satan"
    5. Note: It's amazing how ADHD Peter is. He hits these amazing spiritual highs, followed immediately by incredible lows.
