Mark wrote his Gospel to explain why and how Jesus is the Messiah and Son of God who fulfills God's promises as he proclaims and embodies the coming kingdom of God. Mark emphasizes Jesus' authority and also his suffering and death as God's will for his messianic mission.
This Tyndale New Testament commentary from Eckhard Schnabel seeks to help today's Christian disciples communicate the significance of Jesus and the transforming power of the good news. An exegetical commentary on the Gospel of Mark, this volume will be useful for preachers, Bible teachers, and non-specialists alike.

When you think of the Tyndale NTC series, you dont often think of substantial. But this is a substantial commentary. 441 pages with little room taken up by footnotes. In some places, it goes more in depth than some of the larger works. Few seem to have a better grasp on historical backgrounds than E. Schnabel, and so his work certainly excels here. Here and there, Schnabel departs from traditional conclusions. For that reason, one might want an additional conversation partner. The commentary is clear, insightful and theologically astute. And it's up to date. What more could you ask for...?

an excellent and accessible commentary on Mark which opened up my view of this gospel, and proved an inspiring and joy-bringing read in the run-up to Christmas. I loved it because it pointed me to Jesus repeatedly, and didn’t mince words in interpretation.
