Mark 6:8

6 And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7 Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

9 and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10 And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.
