This volume is a scholarly but accessible treatment of the Gospel of Mark in its Jewish context. It draws on numerous sources and presents more than 600 brief extracts from ancient sources (including Greek and Aramaic translations of the Old Testament, ancient commentaries called Midrashes], the Dead Sea Scrolls, first century Jewish notables Philo of Alexandria and the historian Josephus, the Mishnah, Tosefta and Talmud, the Samaritan Chronicles and other sources), all designed to expand an understanding of Mark's Jewish world. The notes for each portion of Mark are divided into General, Person, Location, and Subject notes, with suggestions for Further Reading added. Throughout the volume an active conversation is maintained with other Jewish and Christian scholars who have studied Mark. The author is a Jewish scholar of the New Testament. At 500+ pages of material, this is a hefty volume offered at an exceptionally reasonable price.
