Mark 3:20
Eat bread - Had no time to take any necessary refreshment.
18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite;
19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. And they went into a house.
A House Divided Cannot Stand
20 Then the multitude came together again, aso that they could not so much as eat bread.
21 But when His aown people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, bfor they said, “He is out of His mind.”
22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, a“He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the bruler of the demons He casts out demons.”
23 aSo He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan?
24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

27 aNo one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.
The Unpardonable Sin
28 a“Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter;

30 because they asaid, “He has an unclean spirit.”
Jesus’ Mother and Brothers Send for Him
31 aThen His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him.
32 And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers1 are outside seeking You.”
33 But He answered them, saying, “Who is My mother, or My brothers?”
34 And He looked around in a circle at those who sat about Him, and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers!
