The main strength of Yarbro Collins's commentary is clearly in its extensive description of the general literary background to Mark's Gospel. My initial concern with Yarbro Collins's approach was that the noise of so many parallel voices would drown out the distinctive message of Mark. However, Yarbro Collins manages to look carefully not only at other ancient documents but also at the text of Mark itself. In the end, my concern was replaced with an appreciation for the years of research that must have gone into this work. Yarbro Collins's commentary will remain an important resource for studying parallels to Mark's Gospel from ancient Jewish, Greek, and Roman literature for years to come.

Professor Adela Yarbro Collins brings to bear on the text of the first Gospel the latest historical-critical perspectives, providing a full treatment of such controversial issues as the relationship of canonical Mark to the "Secret Gospel of Mark" and the text of the Gospel, including its longer endings. She situates the Gospel, with its enigmatic portrait of the misunderstood Messiah, in the context of Jewish and Greco-Roman literature of the first century. Her comments draw on her profound knowledge of apocalyptic literature as well as on the traditions of popular biography in the Greco-Roman world to illuminate the overall literary form of the Gospel. The commentary also introduces an impressive store of data on the language and style of Mark, illustrated from papyrological and epigraphical sources. Collins is in constructive dialogue with the wide range of scholarship on Mark that has been produced in the twentieth century. Her work will be foundational for Markan scholarship in the first half of the twenty-first century. -- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Also the amount of space given to individual passages can be very varied, with some passages been given a great deal of analysis and others being almost passed over.
In summary, this is a superb additional resource for those studying the Gospel, especially those who seek to situate it within its litterary environment, but I could not recommend it as a stand alone refernce work. ( )
