    Bible - NT - Mark: Plunder vessels

    [Print] | [Email]

    Jesus tells the Pharisees who accuse Him of casting out demons by the power of Satan that, on the contrary, He is the stronger man who binds the strong man and comes to plunder the “vessels” of his house (Mark 3).  The only other place where Mark uses the word “vessel” is in chapter 11, during Jesus temple action.  The house Jesus is plundering is the temple, which has become infested with demons.
