Mark - eBook

The Gospel of Mark, an action-packed, fast-moving account of the life of Jesus, is geared to the Gentile mind of a Roman and presents Jesus as the Son of God who gave his life a ransom for many. The shortest and earliest gospel, Mark was written from Rome, where, according to tradition, the author wrote down the words Peter preached. Although each of more than 60 readings in the commentary is short, the content is rich with careful explanation, devotional warmth, and practical relevance. I. Howard Marshall has been described as an outstanding scholar and gifted teacher.
