3. Who is represented by the “ son” in verses 6-8? 4. Who are represented by the “husbandmen” ? (v. 9.) Who by the “ others” ? (v. 9.) 5. Did the Pharisees get the point of the parable? (v. 12.) Study Questions on Chapter 12 (Continued) 1. Who were the Herodians? (v. 13.) Look up the answer in your Bible dictionary or Bible encyclo­ pedia. 2. How do the words of the Phar­ isees and Herodians remind one of the statement in Psalm 55:21? (v. 14.) 3. What is the purpose behind the question of these enemies of Christ? (v. 14.) How did the Saviour answer their question and with what result? (w . 15-17.) 4. List the groups of people who opposed Christ as they are presented from Mark 11:27 - 12:18. Study Questions on Chapter 12 (Continued) 1. How are the Sadducees like the present-day modernists? (v. 18.) 2. What problem did they present to Christ? (w . 19-23.) 3. What two great errors did these enemies of Christ make as evidenced by their question and by our Lord’s statement in verse 24? Do not un­ believers make these same two mis­ takes today? 4. What will be the status of be­ lievers in the resurrection as far as some of the earthly relationships are concerned? (v. 25.) 5. How does our Lord prove the fact of the resurrection, the doctrine especially singled out by the Saddu­ cees as their strong argument? (vv. 26,27.) Study Questions on Chapter 12 (Continued) 1.

Study Questions on Chapter 11 1. Why do you think the Lord Jesus entered Jerusalem in the way described in verses 1-11? 2. How is the ownership of Christ over all things demonstrated in verses 2-6?

In the Holy Land, a fig tree has fruit first, then leaves. This means that this fig tree should have had fruit on it since it did have leaves and especially since Mark tells us that “ the time of figs was not yet,” which means that the tree had not been har­ vested! What central lesson, then, is taught by the divine cursing of the tree? (vv. 12-14.) Study Questions on Chapter 11 ( Continued) 1. How is the divine authority of the Son of God evidenced in His ac­ tions in verses 15-17? 2. How are the Saviour’s actions re­ ceived by the religious leaders? (v. 18.) 3. Is it significant that Christ did not remain in the Holy City or in the temple area during His last visit to Jerusalem? (v. 19.) 4. What further application does the Lord Jesus make of the incident of the fig tree? (vv. 20-24.) 5. What is the required attitude toward others with regard to prayer and receiving answers to prayer? (w . 25,26.) 6. Why were the religious leaders afraid to answer the question of Christ? (vv. 27-33.) Unreality is al­ ways embarrassing! Study Questions on Chapter 12 1. Remembering that our Lord is now about to be crucified by the very nation He came to help, what is the significance of verses 1-12? 2. Who are represented by the “ servants” in verses 2-5? (cf. Matt. 23:34-39.)
