Mark 12:11
Jesus is still quoting here. This ends his parable because this is the punchline, so to speak. It is his way to drive home his identity to these religious but ignorant men.
The idea of it being ‘marvelous’ has a dual meaning. It describes the wonder that we feel as we ponder God’s amazing plan. But, it also describes the obnoxious incredulity of the Jewish elite.
Heavenly Father, thank you for showing us your wondrous plan. The history of this world shows your great wisdom in all things. You do all things well, and you have planned it all out perfectly. Thank you for the faithfulness we see everywhere in your ways. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
