A Preface to Mark is a literary study which, from the standpoint of the newer critical methodologies, explores two questions. First, Bryan attempts to determine what kind of text Mark would have been seen to be, both by its author and by others who encountered it near the time of its writing. Second, he looks at the evidence that exists to indicate whether Mark, like so much else of its period, was written to be read aloud. This accessible study will serve as a good introduction to the Gospel for students as well as the general reader.
