Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Dr. Barclay explains why the first three Gospels are called synoptic, how they came to be written, and how scholars have concluded that Mark's was the first. Touching on Mark's own life, he discusses the rift that Mak occasioned between Paul and Barnabas, Mark's sources of information about Jesus, the characteristics of his Gospel writing, and mystery of the "lost ending.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm looking forward to reading the entire series, August 12, 2000
By "lushi" (Eaton Rapids, MI United States) - See all my reviews
Reading this commentary was like having a daily conversation with a deeply learned companion. Barclay's remarks are always insightful. Without being dogmatic, he brings Mark's prose alive. His understanding of the original Greek and of the customs and mores of the ancient world provides helpful context to the story. What a wonderful personal tutor! I now am reading his book on the letters to the Corinthians and will read the entire series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book about the Good Book!, August 24, 2001
50 years and this is still a great book in a great series. Unlike so many popular Christian books that become dated over time, William Barclay's Daily Study Bible just seems to get better. He has excellent historical material. He offers valuable insight that will apply to your life as we begin the third millenium. You will be glad you bought this book, or any of the others Barclay wrote in the New Testament Series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brings to life the most overlooked Gospel, May 5, 1999
By A Customer
Mark's Gospel is rich with the teachings of Peter, with some personal insight from Mark who was a boy in Jesus' last days. Barclay does a wonderful job of bringing us into Mark's Gospel and explaining the circumstances and meanings of Jesus' words and parables, without putting any personal spin on them. The English translations don't always do the Greek words justice, and Barclay helps develop the rich meanings of the Greek language we often lose in our translations. To read Barclay is to read Jesus as if He were here teaching us, which, really, He is.
