CHAPTER STUDY WORKSPACE

Mark 11

Jesus enters Jerusalem riding on a colt, is acclaimed by crowds, inspects the temple, curses a fruitless fig tree, and cleanses the temple of corrupt commerce. The next day the fig tree is withered, and Jesus teaches on faith, prayer, and forgiveness. Chief priests, scribes, and elders then challenge His authority, but He answers with a question about John’s baptism that exposes their political calculation.
