Description

As the Gospel of Mark progresses, the cross of Christ starts to loom over the story. The Gospels are not mere biographies of Jesus; they are passion narratives with an extended introduction! So, how does the text establish the cross-focus for the reader? We look at the role of predictive sections and the shadow of the cross over other events in Mark’s account.
