Overview
"For over 150 years the idea that Mark used the Pauline epistles has been recurring in New Testament research. Now in the work of Tom Dykstra, wide-ranging work and thoughtful, the truth of that idea emerges with a clarity it never had before. The result is to give a fresh sense of the origin and nature of Mark, of all the New Testament books, and of the quest for history." - -Thomas Brodie, Director, Dominican Biblical Institute, author of ¬ The Birthing of the New Testament "Tom Dykstra draws connections between Paul and the Gospel of Mark that are stunning, surprising, and original, and leave readers with a sense that the evidence deserves a better interpretation than traditional Synoptic models can o ffer. Well argued, easy to read, immersed in the relevant current exegetical discussion, the book fascinates, provokes, and encourages to think outside the box." - David Trobisch, author of The First Edition of the New Testament "In addition to its main focus on Mark, this book is a lucid introduction to early church history, oral tradition, the gospels' genre, and how to understand scripture in general." - Paul Nadim Tarazi, Professor of Biblical Studies, St. Vladimir's Seminary
