Mark 10:13-16 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.… "O mother," said a little girl, on returning from church, and running into her mother's sick room, "I have heard the child's gospel today!" It was the very part which I am now preaching about. Another, about seven years old, heard the same passage read when she was near death, and, as her sister closed the book, the little sick one said, "How kind! I shall soon go to Jesus. He will take me up in His arms, and bless me, too!" The sister tenderly kissed her, and asked, "Do you love me, dearest? Yes," she answered, "but, don't be angry, I love Jesus more." (J. H. Norton, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. |
