Marks Story Of Jesus
$19.00Add to cartThis book is designed to introduce the reader to a single coherent story, Mark’s story of Jesus’ life and death. From a literary perspective the reader is therefore advised to approach the Markan story as he or she would any other story: to read the whole story from beginning to end, to observe the characters and the interplay among them, to watch for the author’s clues regarding the plot, to discern the plot development, to identify scenes of crisis and recognition, and to view the story’s resolution in the light of its antecedent logic.
