  1. 1

    What did Jesus predict on the road to Jerusalem in Mark 10:32-34?

    Model answer

    Jesus said the Son of Man would be handed over to the chief priests and teachers of the law, condemned, and handed to the Gentiles. They would mock him, spit on him, flog him and kill him, and after three days he would rise.

  2. 2

    How does Mark describe the disciples on that road?

    Model answer

    Mark says they were astonished and those who followed were afraid. Jesus was walking ahead of them towards Jerusalem.

  3. 3

    What did James and John ask for?

    Model answer

    James and John asked to sit at Jesus' right and left in his glory. Jesus told them they did not know what they were asking.

  4. 4

    What did Jesus mean by the cup and the baptism?

    Model answer

    Jesus asked whether they could drink the cup he drinks or be baptised with his baptism. Each image stands for the suffering and death ahead of him.

  5. 5

    How did the other disciples react?

    Model answer

    The other ten became indignant with James and John. Jesus called them together to teach about authority.

  6. 6

    What did Jesus teach about greatness?

    Model answer

    Jesus said the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over people, but it must not be so among his followers. Whoever wants to be great must be a servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.
