5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional Commentary on the Earliest Gospel, April 28, 2009
This review is from: Mark 8-16 (The Anchor Yale Bible Commentaries) (Hardcover)
The first volume of the new Anchor Bible Commentary on Mark continued the format of the series as a whole, with passages of the Bible commented on first in verse-by-verse detail and then examined in wider view of their original context. With Mark 8-16, Joel Marcus completes his study, which those seeking in-depth examination of Mark will find up-to-date in its literature review and compelling in its interpretive commitment. The hardcover edition will best allow for the years of use sure to be made of this highly readable volume.

Students of Mark's Gospel may now consider Marcus' completed work along with the unsurpassed detail of Yarbro Collins' volume (Hermeneia). Preachers will also benefit from the word-study and interpretative insights of Donahue/Harrington (Sacra Pagina). Serious readers in general will do well with Boring's masterful single-volume commentary (New Testament Library), Perkin's briefer comments and reflections (New Interpreter's Bible), Hooker's still-valuable volume (Black's NT Commentary) and Byrne's well-focused theological reading ("A Costly Freedom").
