Marcos 1:21-34

B. Early demonstrations of the Servant’s authority in Capernaum 1:21-34

This section of the Gospel records three instances of ministry in Capernaum. These were Jesus’ teaching and healing in the synagogue, His healing of Peter’s mother-in-law, and His healing of many others. These events further demonstrated Jesus’ authority. They all occurred on one day, or two days from the Jewish perspective in which a new day began at sunset. Mark implied that this was a typical day of ministry for Jesus.
