Mark 9: 30-37 - 'Anyone who welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me.'

Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:

- 557 (in 'Jesus' ascent to Jerusalem') - "When the days drew near for him to be taken up [Jesus] set his face to go to Jerusalem." By this decision he indicated that he was going up to Jerusalem prepared to die there. Three times he had announced his Passion and Resurrection (abbreviated)

- 474 (in 'Christ's Soul and his human knowledge') - By its union to the divine wisdom in the person of the Word incarnate, Christ enjoyed in his human knowledge the fullness of understanding of the eternal plans he had come to reveal. What he admitted to not knowing in this area, he elsewhere declared himself not sent to reveal.

- 1824 (in 'Charity') - Christ died out of love for us, while we were still "enemies." The Lord asks us to love as he does, even our enemies, to make ourselves the neighbor of those farthest away, and to love children and the poor as Christ himself.

0:00.0	Hi everyone. Welcome back to the podcast, the Logical Bible Study podcast where we do an exegesis of the gospel reading from today's Mass.
0:20.7	And we're continuing in the Gospel of Mark.
0:22.6	So if you go to Mass today, you'll hear from Mark chapter 9, verse 30 to 37.
0:29.2	So let's start by reading the passage.
0:32.4	Jesus and his disciples made their way through Galilee, and he did not want anyone to know because he was instructing his disciples made their way through Galilee and he did not want anyone to know because
0:39.5	he was instructing his disciples.
0:42.4	He was telling them, the son of man will be delivered into the hands of men.
0:46.9	They will put him to death and three days after he has been put to death he will rise again.
0:53.7	But they did not understand what he said and were afraid to ask him.
0:58.4	They came to Copernum and when he was in the house he asked them, what were you arguing
1:03.4	about on the road?
1:05.5	They said nothing because they had been arguing which one of them was the greatest.
1:11.5	So he sat down and called the twelve to him and said,
1:15.0	if anyone wants to be first, he must make himself last of all
1:19.0	and servant of all.
1:20.8	He then took a little child, set him in front of them,
1:24.1	put his arms around him, and said to them, anyone who welcomes one of these little
1:29.6	children in my name, welcomes me, and anyone who welcomes me welcomes not me, but the one who sent me.
1:40.3	So let's start at the start here. So verse 30, Jesus and his disciples made their way through
1:45.3	Galilee. So this is the northern seaside area of Israel and this is where Jesus lives and he does
1:51.2	most of his ministry in Galilee. For most of the gospel of Mark, he's been in Galilee and he
