Mark also recognized the humanity of Jesus. Mark has a great deal to say about the human emotions of Jesus -
- He sighed deeply in his spirit (Mark 8:12)
- He looked with anger on his merciless critics (Mark 3:5)
- He was, at times, greatly distressed (Mark 14:33)
- He was much displeased when the disciples sought to turn the little children away from him (Mark 10:14)
- He took those same children up in his arms with all the tenderness of a parent (Mark 10:16)
- He became weary and needed rest (Mark 6:31)
According to Mark, the incarnation was very real. Jesus was, of a truth, both God and man.
