  • The Gospel of Mark tells the story of Jesus, someone who came not to be served by people, but to serve them.
    Mark arranges his gospel in a genius way: first foreshadowing Jesus' coming rejection, then transitioning to a set of three predictions of Jesus' death, and then culminating with Jesus' suffering, death, and resurrection. Mark's gospel is carefully set up to show that Jesus is the Son of God, but came not as a conquering warrior, but a suffering servant on behalf of humans everywhere.

    Although I am not a Christian, I love the Gospel of Mark: in my view it is one of the most important works of literature in the western world. I like how in your analysis you do not necessarily assume a Christian worldview, but focus on the story that Mark is trying to tell.

    I just read the whole book naively like it was a short story. Not making all the assumptions you do. I was aware that it's a translation, and that translations always mean there's interpretation going on.
    My impression was that most of it at first was about healing. I also found it somewhat cinematic, with flashbacks, some show of temperament on the part of the hero, aspects of a buddy movie. You can even see how the producers didn't like the audience reaction at the first showing, so they got the scriptwriters to change the ending.
    I find the hero quite mysterious and enigmatic, with a penchant for drama. He tends to fall out with his buddies when they don't understand him or let him down. Doesn't show any interest in women; but there is a mysterious half naked boy in chapters 14 and 16. What's that about?
    Intriguing. You can see how Matthew and Luke thought the story would be benefit from some enhancement.

    This is great. I also would add that Jesus never referred to himself as the Son of God, and he was intentionally hiding his identity from everyone. I think what was also missed was Jesus’s last words on the cross which is also a topic that scholars debate about as well.

    That was a very useful video and a good length, too - hard to fit that all in to 20 minutes, but you did a good job. I thought you should have made it clearer that the Gospel is anonymous and we have no idea who wrote it, but the content and particularly the way you focused on the themes was great. It did make it very clear to me how the gospel is a construction rather than something that actually happened - everything happening in threes to build and link to his rising after 3 days, the parallels with Elijah and Moses which demonstrate that Jesus is being invented to mimic them for a new audience, the Markan sandwiches which are there to make a mythical point rather than reflect actual history, etc. Really interesting stuff, thumbs up.

    Mark was the first of the 3 canonical gospels written. Mathew and Luke use very large amounts of Mark and then make additions to Mark and they leave some Markian stuff out that they did not agree with. Mathew is the first gospel as he was an actual disciple so he was more prestigious than Mark and Luke according to the early Church. Mark completely omits the birth narrative and his resurrection description is very brief with a sudden and uninspiring ending. Remember, the letters of Paul were written long before any of the 4 Gospels. Accordingly, Paul never cites or discusses the 4 Gospels at all as the did not exist in his lifetime in writing.

    • @hzlkelly
      @hzlkelly 10 місяців тому

      You wrote a lot of things which aren’t true. Paul had a separate work from the 12 apostles and that’s why he focuses on his work and not the apostles but he acknowledges their authority and he was serving in the church for a while before being set apart. His foundation is in the gospel and he doesn’t have to mention it because there’s literally four gospels about Jesus as it was already intended to be.

    I am a sceptic and so as you might think I am looking for problems but not finding much. So good job in general but a few additions I think would be good like this is not a first person account written thirty or more years after Jesus' death and the manuscripts we have are even younger. I think it would also be good to state that this is well written has organization, plot development and is just a good read. You have no problem noting that the twelve don't get it but you might have noted that Jesus tried to download his healings by telling the people not to tell anyone. Contrast with John where Jesus is all about miracle s that he John even calls signs and wonders.

    @WhiteNacho 3 роки тому

    …Mark 8: 23So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked. 24 The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around.” 25 Once again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and when he opened them his sight was restored, and he could see everything clearly.
    Why did the blind man see people moving about if he was taken out of the village? How did the blind man know what trees looked like and why would they be so tall? Why did Jesus do the miracle twice? I'm a believer not a doubter but this one has been puzzling me for the past month.

      @OverviewBible  4 роки тому +4

      Today UA-cam's filters have detected 63 spam comments-so spam gets blocked.
      Beyond that, I occasionally remove comments if they're:
      1. Mean-spirited toward other commenters
      2. Hateful, racist, or otherwise unacceptable (e.g., anti-semitic content)
      3. Irrelevant (e.g., conspiracy theories that don't relate to the video content)
      I'd get a lot more hate if I posted more controversial content-but when you're just posting outlines of old letters and narratives, you don't tend to attract as much of the same vitriol that other parts of the internet get.
      Usually I'll handle negative remarks just like I'm handling yours. You're welcome to find a different UA-cam channel with more flame wars-there are plenty to choose from! ;-)
