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.
