This review is from: Mark (Interpretation, a Bible Commentary for Teaching and Preaching) (Hardcover)

I am pretty impressed with the quality of the book. It covers a good amount of material throughout Mark and even goes over the stuff that may or may not support Mark being actually from God. I saw the book at the Society of Biblical Literature conference in Boston, so I bought a few of them from the series. 5 Stars from an atheist theology student.
