Demons and Politics Paperback / softback
by Andrew Perry
Paperback / softback
Description
This monograph (72 pages, hardback, 978-0-9526192-6-0) analyses Mark's portrayal of exorcism from a political perspective.
It argues the case that Mark saw in Jesus' exorcisms a symbolic demonstration of the cleansing of the people.
Thus it is argued that the Marcan Jesus did not subscribe to the cosmological dualism of his day; rather Mark used this language to represent the spiritual and political state of the people.
