Martha asks Jesus to reprimand Mary for sitting and listening to Jesus teaching instead of helping her host the house guests. Instead, Jesus supports Mary’s choice. Sitting at a Rabbi’s feet was not insignificant in the first century, especially for women. Our cultural standards are not Jesus’ or God’s standards. But that’s not the only reason Jesus commended Mary’s choice. This lesson is from our series Keep the Fires Burning, a Bible study series of the minor characters of the Bible that can teach us major lessons. Each episode will introduce you to a new character and help you understand why they are mentioned.
