___________________________
The Gospel of Mark is completely underrated by most modern readers, who typically consider it a condensed version of Matthew or Luke -- a nuts-and-bolts no-nonsense account of what Jesus said and did with no literary flair. Oh boy are THEY ever wrong. In this episode Bart explains why Mark is not only his favorite Gospel but also his favorite book of the Bible, a book with subtleties, nuances, and intricacies from start to end that most people simply never see and that make all the difference for understanding its message. This is a brilliant account of Jesus' life, one of the most intriguing books to come to us from early Christianity.
In this episode:
-Why scholars consider the Gospel of Mark is understood by scholar to be the oldest of the gospels
-The gospel of Mark opens with “The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ”. The first sentence really sets the tone for the rest of the book, showing Jesus as the messiah. What did this word mean in the ancient world, and how would Jewish and Gentile audiences understood it?
-Does Mark accept these typical expectations of what the messiah was to be?
-What did it mean to be a “son of god” in the ancient world, and was Jesus the only one, or is Mark drawing on an established tradition here?
-Why does Mark completely skip Jesus’ birth and open with an already-adult Jesus meeting John the Baptist. Why would Mark start there?
-How does Mark try to show that Jesus really was the Messiah, the Son of God in his narrative?
-Why is it that a lot of people in Mark’s narrative don’t understand who Jesus really is?
-Why would Jesus NOT want people to repent?
-At the end, does Jesus himself have doubts of his identity?
-By the end of this Gospel, does anyone understand who Jesus is?

What I find so wonderful about Mark’s language is its liveliness, the way the Greek jumps into the present tense: “Look! He walks into the room! He speaks to the crowd! They’re bringing a leper to him!” I can imagine it being read out loud and the audience enraptured as if they’re listening to an amazing play or maybe even a podcast “🫢🎉👏

30 years in the Church or church adjacent and more light bulbs clicked on for me in this one conversation than ever before.

The explanation of "Son of God" is so critical! Thank you for that!

I was raised in a fundamentalist church and was shocked and liberated after receiving my MDIV at Howard University School of Religion. Listening to your blog reminds me of my professors lectures. Thank you for your rigorous scholarship and teaching...very enjoyable.

I cannot find the words to describe how good this series is. Two cool, intelligent people having a polite conversation about a deeply fascinating subject......what's not to like?
And, IMO, this particular episode is the best yet.

Dr Ehrman, I just binged like 5 hours of your teachings in a weekend. I went to a Christian college and took several courses such as the synoptic gospels and have never heard the gospels taught the way you teach them. Thank you for sharing your teachings with us!

I've been going to church for years, but I've never learned as much as I have from this one video. What an amazing gift. Knowledge is beautiful.

Ehrman makes clear what years of religious education could not.

Brilliant presentation! Thank you dr. Megan and dr. Bart for this wonderful evening. Easter is coming, and although I am no longer a practicing Christian, I relive the time spent with my grandparents and parents with nostalgia ...

I love how Megan always comes out with a new look and shares some new info that surprises Bart.

Tuesday is my favorite day of the week, It means that I get to listen to another Misquoting Jesus podcast at work! :D (though Friday means I don't have work, and that's a close second)

Fortunately for us laymen, Dr. Ehrman is a gifted teacher in addition to his skill , insight , and dedication as a researcher .

I grew up in a Christian household, went to Christian school and was involved in the church 3 times a week until I was 22. I am now I guess agnostic, but I love learning the historical background of all of this! I wish someone would have taught me all of this actual evidence growing up. Love this!
