Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The short story that we now know as the Gospel according to Mark was written in Greek twenty centuries ago in the context of an agrarian society that had been developing its own characteristics in the circum-Mediterranean region. Mark's account presupposes the values, institutions, and relationships of the culture in which Jesus and his first followers lived. Modern readers of the Gospels, however, especially those born and raised in the North Atlantic postindustrial societies, have other values and institutions, and relate to each other according to other cultural codes. This temporal and cultural distance between the ancient texts and their present-day readers makes necessary an exegetical effort whose purpose is to recover, as far as possible, the reading scenarios presupposed by these texts. In order to reconstruct these scenarios, exegesis has turned in recent years to the social sciences, whose models permit us to imagine and describe the situations presupposed by these ancient texts. This book aims to show how the use of these scenarios elaborated with the help of the social sciences can contribute to a more considered and respectful reading of Mark's story.

Book Synopsis The Gospel according to Mark by : Camille Focant
Download or read book The Gospel according to Mark written by Camille Focant and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-07-06 with total page 757 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world to which the Gospel of Mark introduces its reader is a world of conflicts and suspense, enigmas and secrets, questions and overturning of evidence, irony and surprise. Its principal actor, Jesus, is perplexing in the extreme. He is evidently so for the religious authorities who oppose him, but also for his disciples, who shift from incomprehension to opposition and flight. Questions of meaning, life and death, good and evil are continually broached. This narrative is a subtle invitation to enter into a new world, that of the coming Reign of God, in which the first are last and whoever wants to save his life must lose it. This commentary on the Gospel of Mark has been enthusiastically reviewed in the French edition as one of the best current commentaries on Mark. As a narrative critical commentary, it favors an interpretation of the Gospel that tries to grasp the dynamic of the text taken as a whole. Even if the technical vocabulary of narrative analysis is not used, and the main results of the historical-critical criticism, particularly those of redaction criticism, are not neglected, as the notes will reveal, it is narrative criticism that guides the proceedings.

Book Synopsis The Theological Programme of Mark by : Francesco Filannino
Download or read book The Theological Programme of Mark written by Francesco Filannino and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first chapters of literary works are indispensable to understanding them. This is also true of the Gospels. Francesco Filannino shows that the introductory section of Mark's Gospel (Mark 1:1-15) is an important key to accessing the whole narrative, because it anticipates the main contents of the evangelist's theology.
Book Synopsis Reading Mark's Gospel as a Text from Collective Memory by : Sandra Huebenthal
Download or read book Reading Mark's Gospel as a Text from Collective Memory written by Sandra Huebenthal and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did the Gospel of Mark come to exist? And how was the memory of Jesus shaped by the experiences of the earliest Christians? For centuries, biblical scholars examined texts as history, literature, theology, or even as story. Curiously absent, however, has been attention to processes of collective memory in the creation of biblical texts. Drawing on modern explorations of social memory, Sandra Huebenthal presents a model for reading biblical texts as collective memories. She demonstrates that the Gospel of Mark is a text evolving from collective narrative memory based on recollections of Jesus’s life and teachings. Huebenthal investigates the principles and structures of how groups remember and how their memory is structured and presented. In the case of Mark’s Gospel, this includes examining which image of Jesus, as well as which authorial self-image, this text as memory constructs. Reading Mark’s Gospel as a Text from Collective Memory serves less as a key to unlock questions about the historical Jesus and more as an examination of memory about him within a particular community, providing a new and important framework for interpreting the earliest canonical gospel in context.
Book Synopsis A Gospel Synopsis of the Greek Text of Matthew, Mark and Luke by : Jenny Read-Heimerdinger
Download or read book A Gospel Synopsis of the Greek Text of Matthew, Mark and Luke written by Jenny Read-Heimerdinger and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 651 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this new Gospel Synopsis is to enhance the study of the Synoptic Gospels and provide insights into the synoptic problem through a clear presentation of the Greek text. Jenny Read-Heimerdinger and Josep Rius-Camps set out the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke in turn, comparing each line by line with the other two. A further innovative feature is that the text is presented according to two important Gospel manuscripts, Codex Bezae and Codex Vaticanus, rather than the usual eclectic edition of the Greek New Testament. Thus, not only are the differences between the Gospels clearly visible but also, the complexity of their relationship is more easily identified through the comparison of two divergent manuscripts representative of distinct traditions.

Book Synopsis Mark's Story of Jesus by : Dewey Mulholland
Download or read book Mark's Story of Jesus written by Dewey Mulholland and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 1999-05-26 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A missionary-scholar who has been studying and teaching the Gospel of Mark for over forty years, Dr. Mulholland is an insightful expounder of its message, guiding us through this account of Jesus the mighty miracle-worker who is the Messiah of all nations. Informed by the best of academic research, Mulholland's lucid and detailed study will prove eye-opening as well as soul-challenging for its readers. --Dr.Vernon C. Grounds, Chancellor, Denver Seminary During his many years of work as a missionary in Brazil, the Rev. Dewey Mulholland was enabled to strengthen the church there in a most strategic way. In the seminary he helped found in Brasilia, the capital, he made the inductive study of the Bible in Portuguese central for the training of Christian workers. He wanted to teach people how to study the Bible for themselves. No boring sermons and Bible lessons from these graduates! Studying the Bible the way Mulholland taught them, they keep coming up with new, exciting insights into the inspired meanings of the Bible. Learning to comprehend the biblical text for themselves, his students often opened Mulholland's eyes to vital insights into the Marcan meaning. This English version of his Marcan commentary makes this accumulation of insights available to us in the Euro-American world. Seeing the significance that Mark has for people in Latin America helps us to be more enlightened world Christians. --Dr. Daniel P. Fuller, Senior Professor of Hermeneutics, Fuller Theological Seminary The author skillfully combines Mark's emphasis upon Jesus as the Messiah whose Kingdom embraces people of all nations, with his portrayal of the Servant who reigns through suffering. This message is very relevant to the developing nations where many politicians and clergymen use their positions to dominate. I recommend this commentary, for it enlarges our understanding of the Messiah and calls upon us to fulfill the task Jesus has delegated to us. --Edouard Kitoko Nsiku, Ph.D., United Bible Societies, Moputo, Mozambique, Africa
Book Synopsis Risen Indeed? Resurrection and Doubt in the Gospel of Mark by : Austin Busch
Download or read book Risen Indeed? Resurrection and Doubt in the Gospel of Mark written by Austin Busch and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2022-08-05 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risen Indeed? Resurrection and Doubt in the Gospel of Mark traces the literary dynamics and explores the theological dimensions of the Gospel of Mark’s thematization of skepticism regarding resurrection. In every place where it seems to depict resurrection—Jesus's and others'—Mark evades the issue of whether resurrection actually occurs. Austin Busch argues that, despite Mark's abbreviated and ambiguous conclusion, this gospel does not downplay resurrection but rather foregrounds it, imagining Jesus’s death and restoration to life as a divine plot to overcome Satan through cunning deception. Risen Indeed? constitutes a careful literary reading of Mark's Gospel, as well as an assessment of Mark's impact on the traditions of Christian literature and theology that emerged in its wake.
Book Synopsis The Liberating Mission of Jesus by : Dario Andres Lopez Rodriguez
Download or read book The Liberating Mission of Jesus written by Dario Andres Lopez Rodriguez and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-06-14 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Liberating Mission of Jesus deals with the central message of the Gospel of Luke, provocatively arguing that the liberating mission of Jesus has two central themes: the universality of the love of God and the special love God has for the defenseless of society. Both of these pillars form the bedrock of Luke's theological vision, animate his Gospel throughout, and summarize the good news of the reign of God in subversive and radical form. This book shows how the liberating message announced by Jesus, as well as his liberating practice, is manifested throughout the Gospel and its implications for Christian life today. Through this thorough treatment, the full depth of Luke's vision of the liberating mission of Jesus is shown to be a paradigm for the personal and collective witness of believers, regardless of the social, political, cultural, or religious boundaries that try to inhibit them from giving witness to the God of life.
Book Synopsis The Subversive Gospel by : Tom Hanks
Download or read book The Subversive Gospel written by Tom Hanks and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do the New Testament writers actually teach about (1) the poor, (2) women, and (3) sexual minorities? Why do traditional commentaries and introductions so often ignore or treat superficially such burning questions churches grapple with today? Must we seek out specialized monographs to get adequate information and satisfactory answers in each area? At last, in a single volume Tom Hanks brings together the fruit of decades of study, examining each New Testament book in each of these three crucial areas, which often overlap in human experience (Latin American male liberation theologians often forget that the "option for the poor" may involve solidarity with a lesbian of color who wants to be ordained!). Building on his pioneering study on oppression and poverty in Biblical theology (Orbis 1984; Wipf 2000) and his Anchor Bible Dictionary article on "Poverty" in the New Testament (which the New York Times review commended for its balance), Hanks analyzes the teaching of each New Testament book regarding the main cause of poverty (oppression) and the variety of liberating Christian responses. Feminist and womanist studies are mined to highlight the presence/absence and role/leadership of women in each New Testament book. The remarkable absence of modern notions of "family" and "family values" in the New Testament books is emphasized, along with the prominence of sexual minorities as authors and subjects of the New Testament books. L. William Countryman comments regarding the poor, women and sexual minorities: "Tom Hanks has brought these issues to the exegesis of the New Testament in a sustained and orderly fashion. He demonstrates beyond question that most of the New Testament authors were not interested in maintaining the household structures of the ancient Mediterranean and that, indeed, most of the individuals presented in the New Testament documents would not have seemed to be models of 'family values' either in their time or today....The works of Hanks and [Theodore W.] Jennings, with their detailed and careful argumentation, show that excellent work is being done in this vein. However surprising their conclusions may be to casual readers (or offensive to readers protecting what they conceive as orthodoxy), they are, in fact, deeply grounded in attentive scholarly work" (Dirt, Greed & Sex, Minneapolis: Fortress, 2007, p. 251-252).
Book Synopsis The Message of Acts in Codex Bezae (vol 4). by : Josep Rius-Camps
Download or read book The Message of Acts in Codex Bezae (vol 4). written by Josep Rius-Camps and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2009-08-15 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This final volume in the four-volume commentary, The Message of Acts in Codex Bezae, continues the comparison of the message of Acts transmitted by Codex Bezae with that of the more familiar Alexandrian text, represented by Codex Vaticanus. For each section of Acts, there is a side by side translation of the Bezan and Alexandrian manuscripts, followed by a critical apparatus and, finally, a commentary that explores the variations in the message of the two texts. Working from this strong methodological foundation Jenny Read-Heimerdinger and Josep Rius-Camps conclude that the Bezan text is the earlier of the two. In the process they provide an illuminating and comprehensive guide to the Acts of the Apostles." --Book Jacket.
Book Synopsis Jesus, Disciple of the Kingdom by : Osvaldo D. Vena
Download or read book Jesus, Disciple of the Kingdom written by Osvaldo D. Vena and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-01-08 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That Jesus started his career as a disciple of John the Baptist is an idea that has gained almost universal recognition in the scholarly world. His coming from Galilee to be baptized by John in the river Jordan is the most compelling proof of Jesus' subordination to John. But quickly after John was executed Jesus started his own career, not as a disciple anymore, but as a teacher in his own right. In this book Osvaldo Vena makes the claim that throughout his ministry Jesus remained a disciple, not of John, but of a higher power, God, and God's kingdom. Thus, Jesus called men and women to join him as co-disciples as he went about proclaiming the nearness of the kingdom through word and action.In this work Vena contends that in the Gospel of Mark, Jesus is presented as a prototype of true and faithful discipleship, a model to be followed and imitated by ancient as well as contemporary believers. This presentation amounts to an emerging Christology espoused by the early Markan community on the verge of destruction from outside forces, specifically the Jewish-Roman war, as well as internal divisions resulting from struggles for power in the community.
