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.
