Context: Luke 10
39And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
40But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

Commentary
Luke 10 is a chapter that speaks to the power of Jesus' ministry and the importance of spreading the gospel. In this chapter, Jesus sends out seventy-two of his disciples to preach the gospel and heal the sick. He instructs them to go out two by two and to take nothing with them but a staff and sandals. He tells them that they will be welcomed in some places and rejected in others, but that they should not be discouraged.
