Commentary
Mark 10 is a chapter that focuses on Jesus' teachings about marriage, divorce, and children. Jesus begins by addressing the Pharisees' question about divorce, and He makes it clear that divorce is not God's ideal.

Jesus also emphasizes the importance of children, and He encourages His followers to welcome them and to treat them with respect.
