It reflects His authority as a teacher and leader. In the context of <a href="/mark/6.htm">Mark 6</a>, Jesus is sending out the Twelve Apostles on a mission, emphasizing His role in preparing them for ministry. This directive is part of a larger discourse where Jesus empowers His disciples to preach, heal, and cast out demons, highlighting the transfer of authority from Jesus to His followers.<p><b>When you enter a house</b><br>In the cultural context of first-century Palestine, hospitality was a significant social value. Entering a house implies acceptance and welcome by the host. This instruction suggests reliance on the hospitality of others, which was a common practice for itinerant preachers and teachers of the time. It also reflects the communal nature of early Christian mission work, where the message of the Kingdom was spread through personal relationships and community engagement.<p><b>stay there</b><br>This command to remain in one place rather than moving from house to house underscores the importance of contentment and stability. It prevents the disciples from seeking better accommodations and encourages them to focus on their mission rather than personal comfort. This principle of contentment is echoed in other scriptures, such as <a href="/philippians/4-11.htm">Philippians 4:11-12</a>, where Paul speaks of being content in all circumstances.<p><b>until you leave that area</b><br>The instruction to stay until leaving the area suggests a temporary mission with a clear endpoint. It implies dedication to the task at hand and a commitment to the community they are serving. This phrase also indicates that the disciples' mission was not to be a permanent settlement but a temporary assignment, reflecting the transient nature of Jesus' own ministry. The idea of moving on after completing a task is seen in other parts of the New Testament, such as in Acts, where Paul and other apostles travel from city to city spreading the Gospel.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus.htm">Jesus</a></b><br>The central figure in this passage, providing instructions to His disciples as He sends them out on a mission.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/d/disciples.htm">Disciples</a></b><br>The followers of Jesus who are being sent out to preach, heal, and cast out demons.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/h/houses.htm">Houses</a></b><br>Represents the places of hospitality and provision for the disciples during their mission.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/v/villages/area.htm">Villages/Area</a></b><br>The regions where the disciples are sent to minister, emphasizing the itinerant nature of their mission.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/c/contentment_in_ministry.htm">Contentment in Ministry</a></b><br>Jesus instructs His disciples to stay in one house, teaching them to be content with what is provided and not to seek better accommodations.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/reliance_on_god's_provision.htm">Reliance on God's Provision</a></b><br>By staying in one place, the disciples learn to trust in God's provision through the hospitality of others.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/consistency_in_witness.htm">Consistency in Witness</a></b><br>Remaining in one house allows the disciples to build relationships and provide a consistent witness to the community.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/s/simplicity_and_focus.htm">Simplicity and Focus</a></b><br>The instruction to stay in one house encourages a simple lifestyle, free from distractions, allowing the disciples to focus on their mission.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/respect_for_hosts.htm">Respect for Hosts</a></b><br>By not moving from house to house, the disciples show respect and gratitude to their hosts, fostering goodwill and deeper connections.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_mark_6.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Mark 6</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_defines_an_attractional_church.htm">What was Jesus' place of residence?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/is_success_worth_your_soul.htm">Is worldly success worth losing your soul?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/does_christ's_ascent_descent_defy_science.htm">Ephesians 4:8-10: Does the idea of Christ 'ascending' and 'descending' conflict with modern scientific understanding of physical reality?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/does_heb._6_1_contradict_jesus's_focus.htm">Hebrews 6:1: Does the call to move beyond 'elementary doctrines' contradict Jesus's repeated focus on foundational teachings like repentance and faith?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/mark/6.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 10.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">There abide, till ye depart</span> <span class="cmt_word">thence.</span> They were not to change their lodgings in any place.
