Additional Info
In The Company Of Jesus tracks the way in which the characters other than Jesus are portrayed in the Gospel of Mark. Malbon employs a literary approach that reveals the contribution to the Gospel story made by the characters around Jesus – the twelve disciples, the women who Jesus encounters and those who follow him, the Jewish leaders, and characters who appear only once. After outlining four elements of narrative criticism – characters, settings, plot, and rhetoric – Malbon explores many of the characters that appear in the Gospel of Mark and shows how their interaction advances the narrative.
