Mark 3
NIrV The Illustrated Holy Bible for Kids
He an­swered, “­Haven’t you ever read ­about what Da­vid did? He and his men were hun­gry.
They need­ed food. It was when Abi­a­thar was high ­priest. Da­vid en­tered the h
­ ouse of God and ate
the holy ­bread. Only ­priests were al­lowed to eat it. Da­vid also gave some to his men.”
Then ­Jesus said to them, “The Sab­bath day was made for man. Man was not made for the
Sab­bath day. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sab­bath day.”
Jesus Heals on the Sabbath Day
MARK 3:1–6
A
n­oth­er time ­Jesus went into the syn­a­gogue. A man with a weak and twist­ed hand was
t ­ here. Some Phar­i­sees were try­ing to find f ­ ault with ­Jesus. They ­watched him close­ly. They
want­ed to see if he ­would heal the man on the Sab­bath day. ­Jesus s ­ poke to the man with
the weak and twist­ed hand. “­Stand up in ­front of ev­ery­one,” he said.
Then ­Jesus a
­ sked them, “What does the Law say we s ­ hould do on the Sab­bath day? S
­ hould
we do good? Or ­should we do evil? S
­ hould we save life? Or s ­ hould we kill?” But no one an­swered.
Jesus l ­ ooked a
­ round at them in an­ger. He was very up­set be­cause t ­ heir h
­ earts were stub­born.
Then he said to the man, “­Stretch out your hand.” He ­stretched it out, and his hand had be­come
as good as new. Then the Phar­i s ­ ees went out
and be­gan to make p
­ lans with the He­ro­di­ans.
They want­ed to kill ­Jesus.
Crowds Follow Jesus

MARK 3:7–12
esus went off to the Sea of Gal­i l ­ ee with his
dis­ci­ples. A ­large ­crowd from Gal­i­lee fol­
lowed. Peo­ple ­heard ­about all that ­Jesus
was do­ing. And many came to him. They came
from Ju­dea, Je­ru­sa­lem and Id­u­mea. They came
from the ­lands east of the Jor­dan Riv­er. And they
came from the area a
­ round Tyre and Si­don. Be­
cause of the c ­ rowd, ­Jesus told his dis­ci­ples to get
a ­small boat r ­ eady for him. This ­would keep the
peo­ple from crowd­ing him. ­Jesus had h
­ ealed
many peo­ple. So t ­ hose who were sick were push­
ing for­ward to t ­ ouch him. When peo­ple con­
trolled by evil spir­its saw him, they fell down in
front of him. The spir­its shout­ed, “You are the
Son of God!” But ­Jesus or­dered them not to tell
­ bout him.

esus went up on a moun­tain­side. He ­called for cer­tain peo­ple to come to him, and they
came. He ap­point­ed 12 of them so that they ­would be with him. He ­would also send them
out to ­preach. And he gave them au­thor­i­ty to ­drive out de­mons.
So J ­ esus ap­point­ed the 12 dis­ci­ples.
Si­mon was one of them. ­Jesus gave him the name Pe­ter.
