Reviews

Mark’s Gospel. Roman Egypt. Second-Third Century. Oracular Culture. Working with these elements, Annelies Gisela Moeser constructs the possible reception of Mark’s Gospel in second-third century, Roman Egypt from the perspective of oracular culture. Sensitive to the dynamics of cultural-imperial society, social status, and gender, Moeser’s creative method and rich reading provide insight into both Mark’s Gospel and a somewhat elusive sphere and era of the early Jesus movement. -- Warren Carter, Phillips Theological Seminary
