Until recently, there has been a near consensus that the Gospel of Mark is an expression of a Gentile, post-Jewish, form of Christ adherence. This book challenges the notion of “Gentile Mark” by developing the first narrative-wide reading of the Gospel as an expression of first-century Judaism. It consolidates insights from scattered studies and proposes new interpretations of specific texts and broader themes. It aims to lay the foundation for resituating the earliest extant account of Jesus within the history of early Christ-followers and first-century Judaism, re-examining the place of the law, the nations, the death of Jesus, and the expected kingdom of God.
