Timothy J. Geddert. Mark. Believers Church Bible Commentary.

Scottdale, Pa.: Herald Press, 2001.

Timothy J. Geddert views Mark as a profound theologian and


accomplished writer, not a mere compiler of traditions. Mark’s text
provokes careful reflection on its subtle and challenging message of
hope and its call to faithfully follow Jesus on the way.

Mark’s Gospel speaks plainly, yet sometimes in riddles, of God as


revealed in Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ, the Son of God. Mark
presents God’s reign, its present hiddenness and future glory, and its
surprising way of coming. Mark is also about Jesus and his followers
crossing barriers to pass God’s grace on to those formerly excluded.
Mark’s resurrection message is open-ended. Readers supply their own ending, not just in
words, but by following their resurrected Lord.
