Beginning of the Gospel, The: A Theology of Mark (New Testament Theology Series)

Peter Orr, Thomas R. Schreiner, Brian S. Rosner

Paperback 2023-01-10

Publisher Description

:Understanding Mark in the Context of the Old and New Testaments

The book of Mark-the first and shortest Gospel written-serves as both a historical and theological account, connecting Jesus to the whole storyline of the Bible. Mark writes against the backdrop of the Old Testament and draws from other New Testament writers, specifically Peter and Paul, to articulate many themes that are found in the rest of the New Testament.

In this addition to the New Testament Theology series, scholar Peter Orr offers an accessible summary of the theology of Mark, examining its relationship to both the Old and New Testaments. Each chapter focuses on a key theological theme-the identity of Christ, the announcement of the kingdom, the call to follow, and more-and explains how it is relevant for the church today.

  • Part of the New Testament Theology Series: Other volumes include The Joy of Hearing; The Mission of the Triune God; and United to Christ, Walking in the Spirit
  • Ideal for Anyone Wanting to Study the Bible More Deeply: Perfect for pastors, seminarians, college students, and laypeople
  • Written by Peter Orr: New Testament lecturer and author of Fight for Your Pastor
