Produktinformationen "The Gospel According to St. Mark"
The Gospel According to St. Mark presents the earliest and most direct narrative account of the life and ministry of Jesus in the enduring language of the King James Version. Traditionally attributed to Mark, a companion of the Apostle Peter, this Gospel follows the ministry of Jesus from his baptism by John the Baptist through his crucifixion and burial, concluding with the discovery of the empty tomb. Mark's narrative is marked by urgency and economy of style, moving swiftly from event to event with a focus on action rather than extended discourse. The text portrays Jesus as a figure of authority-teacher, healer, and exorcist-whose identity as the Son of God is revealed gradually and often misunderstood. The so-called "messianic secret," in which recognition is restrained or concealed, underscores the tension between expectation and fulfilment. The Gospel culminates in the Passion narrative, presenting suffering not as defeat but as integral to the prophetic pattern of the Messiah. Presented here as a standalone volume in the measured and resonant prose of the 1611 King James translation, this edition preserves a Gospel that has long shaped Christian reflection on discipleship, identity, and the paradox of power revealed through suffering.
