Inhaltsangabe

Here author and educator Myers includes the preface for the original 1988 edition along with a new introduction by Sam Wells, and the full text, explaining his strategy and multidisciplinary "socio-historical" approach and introducing Mark's literary style and strategy. Myers interprets Mark's description of the first direct action campaign of Jesus as an assault on the social order in Capernaum, Jesus's sermon on revolutionary patience, his construction of a new social order, his response to the political execution of John, his construction of a teaching cycle, his showdown with the powers in Jerusalem, his arrest and trial, and his execution. In a remarkable summary Myers describes the theology and social strategy of Mark's new Christian community and comments on continuing the narrative of biblical radicalism.
