x + 371hlm; 12x17cm This book is written to help readers understand the Gospel of Mark, believed to be the oldest Gospel in its historical context and its application in modern times. The contents of this book certainly highlight the Gospel of Mark as a dynamic, fast-paced, and action-packed story, depicting Jesus as the Son of Man who actively serves and the Son of God who is full of power. In this revised edition, it also presents an overview of the historical background (such as Mark's influence as Peter's spokesman) and an in-depth but accessible theological analysis. In essence, this book focuses on the question Who is Jesus? which is gradually revealed through His miracles and suffering. Then, it also highlights the failures and struggles of the disciples in understanding Jesus' mission, as a reflection of the life of human faith. Not only that, the author also emphasizes that Jesus' glory is manifested through suffering and service (servant context). The purpose of writing this book is to bridge the ancient text with everyday life, making it relevant for personal, group, and devotional Bible study, making it very suitable for those who want to study the Gospel of Mark in depth. 226.3 0715202723 PERPUSTAKAAN STFT WIDYA SASANA Jln.
