Produktbeschreibung

How did the early believers receive and understand the Gospel according to Mark? Mark's Gospel cannot be fully understood unless we recognize the spiritual needs, hopes, and fears of his first-century audience and emerging church. Through the Eyes of Mark immerses its readers in the realities of Mark's world. It presents the findings of dozens of the world's leading biblical and New Testament scholars and historians in an easy-to-understand format. Through the Eyes of Mark is a must-read for students of religion, enlightening for general readers, and a fresh addition to the field of Markan studies.

Autorenporträt

Jack Ciancio retired nine years ago after a nearly forty-year career in healthcare. For most of that time he was a psychiatric nurse and educator. The most profound part of his career was becoming involved in medical ethics, especially issues concerning end-of-life care. That involvement led him to the intersection of medical science and religion and prompted him to pursue an advanced degree in religion, obtaining a Doctorate in Religious Studies in 2012. He served on the ethics committee of two leading medical centers, and currently serves on the ethics committee of my local hospice, where he is also a patient/family volunteer and grief counselor. His life experience led him to write two books: Through the Eyes of Mark: His World, His Gospel; Where Christ Presides: A Quaker Perspective on Moral Discernment, as well as numerous articles. His time now is spent discovering the most fascinating facts of mother earth while tending his small farm-to-table farm and pondering those philosophical and theological challenges posed by faith and reason.
