Context: Mark 6
7And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;
8And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:
9But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
10And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place.
11And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Commentary
Mark 6 is a chapter that focuses on the ministry of Jesus and the response of the people to His teachings. In this chapter, Jesus returns to His hometown of Nazareth and is rejected by the people there. He then sends out the twelve disciples to preach the gospel and perform miracles. They are successful in their mission, but when they return, Jesus is concerned about the people's lack of faith. He then goes to the nearby towns of Bethsaida and Chorazin, where He performs more miracles and teaches the people.
