Perhaps. But the use of episunagoge doesn't beg the interpretation which the devotional
Mark received proposes. You could say that modern people may infer from it that this is a
good thing to do, but I very much doubt whether that is what the NT author intended it to
mean. There is no logical mandate which demands such an interpretation from the word or
the context.
