Book Synopsis

From the Back Cover

"The gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God." Those words not only begin Mark's gospel, but they also capture one of its most important themes--one that continues throughout the final eight chapters beginning with the transfiguration and culminating with the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Nothing is more important than this central focus of Mark's gospel because nothing is more necessary than knowing the truth about Jesus.
