Mark

Mark, the author of the second Gospel was a native of Jerusalem. Peter referred to Mark as "my son" and from the early church, Mark's Gospel has been thought to reflect Peter's view of Christ. Although it is the briefest of the Gospels, Marks narrative is often more vivid and detailed than the paralleled accounts in Matthew and Luke. Written principally for the Roman world, this Gospel presents Christ as the Servant of the Lord, sent to accomplish a specific work for God. Therefore, it is a book of deeds more than words. The Gospel of Mark may be divided as follows: 1. The Introduction of the Servant to His Public Ministry, 2. The work Accomplished by the Servant, 3. The Servant's Obedience unto Death, 4. The Resurrection and Ascension of the Victorious Servant.
