Mark 3:6

MARK—NOTE ON Mark 3:6 The Pharisees were quite different from the Herodians, who were friends and supporters of the Herodian family dynasty (see note on Matt. 22:16). However, these two groups held counsel together (see Psalms 2:2) in order to destroy Jesus, who was their common enemy (Mark 14:1).
