This is a biblical text presenting Mark chapter 10 (verses 1–52) in parallel columns: the Greek New Testament (GNT) critical text on the left and the King James Version (KJV) with Strong's concordance numbers on the right. The chapter covers several distinct teaching episodes attributed to Jesus: a confrontation with Pharisees over divorce, in which Jesus appeals to the creation order to argue that marriage is indissoluble; a blessing of children, used to illustrate that the kingdom of God belongs to those who receive it with childlike openness; the encounter with a wealthy young man who cannot bring himself to sell his possessions, leading into Jesus's famous declaration that it is easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye than for a rich person to enter God's kingdom. The chapter also includes Jesus's third explicit passion prediction to the Twelve as they approach Jerusalem, James and John's request for seats of honor met with teaching that greatness means servanthood, and the healing of blind Bartimaeus at Jericho. The parallel format—Greek source text alongside a Strong's-keyed KJV—serves a word-study or exegetical purpose, allowing readers to trace every English word back to its Greek root by number.
