The Servant King: Knysna New Testament Series: Mark

The Servant King: Mark

The Servant King, consisting of its introductions and questions and answers to each study, is a fairly full treatment of the Second Gospel. It "stresses facts and actions rather than themes or topics, [and] is the most exciting account of the life of Christ among the Gospels. Although it is the shortest of the four it is often the most detailed.

From the beginning Mark tells the stories of Christ's ministry, especially his miracles. Mark shows Jesus as a man of action and authority. He spends one-third of the book telling the events of Christ's last week on earth, ending with the Savior's death and resurrection." (The NIV Large Print Worship Bible, Zondervan, 1985, page 1551)
