Luke 8:10
8:10 He
said, “You have been given
the opportunity to know
the secrets
of the kingdom of God,
but for others they are in parables, so that
although they see they may not see, and although they hear they may not understand.
Luke 8:19-21
Jesus’ True Family
8:19 Now Jesus’ mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not get near him because of the crowd.
8:20 So he was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
8:21 But he replied to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
