Paul and Barnabas separate over John called Mark

마가라 하는 요한의 일로 바울과 바나바가 피차 갈라 섬

Acts 15:36–41: after some days Paul says to Barnabas, “Let’s return now and visit our brothers in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, to see how they are doing.” Barnabas plans to take John, who was called Mark, with them also. But Paul doesn’t think that it is a good idea to take with them someone who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia, and didn’t go with them to do the work. Then the contention grows so sharp that they separate from each other. Barnabas takes Mark with him and sails away to Cyprus, but Paul chooses Silas and goes out, being commended by the brothers to the grace of God. Paul goes through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the assemblies.
