Mark, meditations on

Description

From the Preface:

It is with real joy that this volume is offered. Similar books, entitled Meditations in John and Meditations in Luke, have preceded this one. Each Gospel, as most of our readers doubtless know, sets forth the Person of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in its own special manner, as divinely directed by the Supreme Author of all the Scriptures - the Holy Spirit of God. ...

Our present commentator, Mark, unveils before our eyes the Lord Jesus as the true Servant of Jehovah, the One whom God calls "My serant ... in whom My soul delighteth" (Isaiah 42:1). As a servant we see our Lord ever busy throughout this Gospel, ministering to the physical and spiritual needs of mankind. One might say that Acts 10:38 is a true epitome of Mark's presentation of our Lord: "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: Who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him."

May the Lord be pleased to bless these meditations on the Person and works of Christ, for His glory and our blessing.
