Mark: Images of an Apostolic Interpreter


Overview

Explores the figure and function of Mark, the apostolic associate to whom Christians have traditionally attributed authorship of the second gospel. Using a variety of critical lenses - historical, literary and theological - Black examines the images of Mark the Evangelical which emerge from the New Testament and from the writings of the early church fathers. He shows how these images helped the early church in the formation of its religious memory and theological identity.
