3:21 He’s out of his mind: Mark does not explain whether the attempt by Jesus’ family to seize him was motivated by sincere but misguided concern, or by hostility. Jesus’ brothers and sisters were not among his followers until after his resurrection (3:31-35; John 7:3-5; 1 Cor 15:7 mentions James, the brother of Jesus, who became a leader of the Jerusalem church, Acts 15:13-21).
