Mk
6: 14-29: The literary arrangement of
keeping the incident of Beheading of
John the Baptist between the departure for mission (6:7-13) and return from the
mission (6:30) means that anyone involved in the mission of Jesus must meet
with difficulties, perhaps even martyrdom.
It also gives the message that humankind cannot advance unless people
are committed to a life of integrity and self-sacrificing love, rather than
becoming slaves to their passions.
