A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In this addition to the wellreceived Paideia series, Mary Ann Beavis examines cultural context and theological meaning in Mark. Paideia commentaries explore how New Testament texts form Christian readers by· attending to the ancient narrative and rhetorical strategies the text employs· showing how the text shapes theological convictions and moral habits· commenting on the final, canonical form of each New Testament book· focusing on the cultural, literary, and theological settings of the text· making judicious use of maps, photos, and sidebars in a readerfriendly format Students, pastors, and other readers will appreciate the insights that Beavis derives from interrogating the text through multiple perspectives.

Revue de presse :

''Beavis brings to this commentary ample familiarity with the text of Mark and with ancient literature more broadly. Balanced in judgment and offering numerous astute observations, this work should prove highly useful, especially to serious readers seeking a reliable introduction and companion for their study of Mark's account of Jesus's ministry.'' --Larry W. Hurtado, professor of New Testament language, literature, and theology, New College, University of Edinburgh
