ZECNT 02: Mark

This series is designed for those who know biblical languages. It is written
primarily for the pastor and Bible teacher, not for the scholar. That is, the
aim is not to review and offer a critique of every possible interpretation that
has ever been given to a passage, but to exegete each passage of Scripture
succinctly in its grammatical and historical context. Each passage is
interpreted in the light of its biblical setting, with a view to grammatical
detail, literary context, flow of biblical argument, and historical setting.
While the focus will not be on application, it is expected that the authors
will offer suggestions as to the direction in which application can flow.

In this volume on Mark, Strauss carefully follows the argument of the Greek
text in a straightforward, accessible, noncontroversial way. It's as if a
master teacher were leading you through the text.
