March 15 :: Deuteronomy 25-27; Mark 14:27-53
What's happening in Mark 14 here?
1. Gethsemane: walk & prayer - Peter, James, & John to watch guard, but continuously fall asleep. Jesus says:
2. Jesus Betrayed by Judas With a Kiss: Jesus arrested.
What do you think this verse is listed for - do you see any symbolism or meaning here?

March 14 :: Deuteronomy 22-24; Mark 14:1-26
What's happening in Mark here?
1. Jesus Anointed by Mary @ Bethany
2. Agreement by Judas to Betray Jesus on Wednesday
3. The Lord's Supper
It is painful to think of the ways we have betrayed Jesus ourselves. It seems in His greatest hour of suffering and need on earth, everyone forsakes, runs from, and lies to Jesus. Are there ways you are doing this recently? What can you do to turn back and love Him instead?

March 12 :: Deuteronomy 16-18; Mark 13:1-20
Deuteronomy 17:16
The king, moreover, must not acquire great numbers of horses for himself or make the people return to Egypt to get more of them, for the LORD has told you, "You are not to go back that way again."
Breaking this scripture down...
The King - an appointed position of power to make right decisions for the people (not how we know it today, huh?)
Horses - a sign of great wealth; he, the king is not to have this
Egypt - a place of slavery where the Lord freed His people from, symbolic of sin
God says - "You are not to go back that way again."
Thank you God for freeing us!

March 11 :: Deuteronomy 13-15; Mark 12:28-44
The Greatest Command of All
Mark 12:28-31
One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."

March 10 :: Deuteronomy 10-12; Mark 12:1-27
Deuteronomy 11:26
"See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse..."
Blessing; following the Lord by obeying and loving Him = conquering things much greater than you could imagine.
Curse; disobeying God's commands to you, following other gods = ??? Let's not find out.

March 7 :: Deuteronomy 1-3; Mark 10:32-52
The Book of Deuteronomy
Author :: Moses
Date :: 1410 B.C.
Title :: In Greek = "A Copy of This Law." In Hebrew = "Words"
Contents :: quoting from Moody's Ryrie Study Bible =
"The book may be viewed as a constitution for the theocracy of Israel once she was established in the land. Its structure parallels that of a typical suzerainty treaty of that period:
(1) preamle, 1:1-5;
(2) historical prologue, 1:6-4:49;
(3) main provisions, 5:1-26:19;
(4) curses and blessings, 27:1-30:20; and
(5) arrangements for continuation of the covenant, 31:1-33:29"
Here is a parallel between Deut & Mark about having faith that God is good and all we need to do is trust in Him with that knowledge (and sometimes even ask for those good things!).

Deuteronomy 1:32-33
In spite of this, you did not trust in the LORD your God, who went ahead of you on your journey, in fire by night and in a cloud by day, to search out places for you to camp and to show you the way you should go.
Mark 10:51-52
"What do you want me to do for you?" Jesus asked him. The blind man said, "Rabbi, I want to see." "Go," said Jesus, "your faith has healed you." Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.
