Markus 3:32

3:32 A crowd was sitting around him and they said to him, “Look, your mother and your brothers ¹  are outside looking for you.”

Markus 10:35

The Request of James and John

10:35 Then ²  James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him and said, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”

[3:32]  ¹ tc ‡ Many mss read “and your sisters” here after “your brothers” (A D Γ 700 pm it). However, the pedigree of several of the mss which lack this phrase is considerable (א B C K L W Δ Θ Ë^1,13 28 33 565 892 1241 1424 2542 pm lat sy). It seems likely that this phrase was added by an early Western scribe to harmonize this statement with Jesus’ response in v. 35. NA²⁷ has the words in brackets, indicating some doubt as to their authenticity.

[10:35]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
