Mark's Gospel cannot be fully understood unless we recognize the spiritual needs, hopes, and fears of his first-century audience and emerging church. Through the Eyes of Mark immerses its readers in the realities of Mark's world. It presents the findings of dozens of the world's leading biblical and New Testament scholars and historians in an easy-to-understand format. Through the Eyes of Mark is a must-read for students of religion, enlightening for general readers, and a fresh addition to the field of Markan studies.
