Synopsis: Not a reference tool, this unique work is a
teaching-learning guide to studying the earliest Gospel. The focus
is on showing how rather than on telling what. "Maps" followed by
leading questions and statements help both faculty and students to
see how the Evangelist adopted and adapted his sacred texts (as
well as Jewish and Greco-Roman resources) in light of his
convictions about and experience of Jesus. Noticing the dominance
of words and themes leads one to discover the primary concerns of
the Author and his readers. Observing how St. Mark internally
arranged his materials provides a clue as to the kind of work it is
and how it was meant to function. Endorsements: "In design and
execution, this pedagogical aid is unique. Instead of drowning his
reader in data, Lemcio offers carefully constructed charts with
which the student may begin to intelligently navigate Mark. Amidst
well-honed comments, Lemcio poses incisive questions that
continuously return us to the primary text. The result is a
valuable collection of maps for the gospel that calls disciples to
position themselves properly: following the way of Jesus." --C.
Clifton Black, Professor of Biblical Theology, Princeton
Theological Seminary Author Biography: Eugene E. Lemcio is Emeritus
