Mark, Paperback / softback Book

Mark Paperback / softback

Part of the New Cambridge Bible Commentary series

Paperback / softback

Description

This volume provides a comprehensive, accessible introduction to the Gospel of Mark, now widely considered the first recorded treatment of Jesus.

Darrell Bock explains how this text, once the least-used gospel, came to be regarded as the starting point for understanding Jesus.

Drawing together previous arguments and discussion in a constructive summary, he traces the significance of Mark and addresses key features such as its cultural and historical background, its narrative flow, and the role of Greek in supplying meaning.

This commentary highlights the issues Mark's gospel raises and develops Mark's message surrounding Jesus' claims of kingdom authority and salvation, the call to disciples to follow him, and the preparation of those disciples to face suffering in light of their choice.

Mark will be a valuable resource for students, teachers, and pastors alike.
