The Gospel Between Emperor and Temple in the Gospel of Mark


Free Download The Gospel Between Emperor and Temple in the Gospel of Mark: A Story of Epoch-making Proximity to the Divine Through Victory and Cult by Morten Horning Jensen
English | June 1, 2023 | ISBN: 3161618580 | 557 pages | PDF | 6.54 Mb
The Gospel of Mark pointedly opens with the statement, "the beginning of the gospel". This raises the question: What does ‘the gospel’ (t? e?a???????) mean to Mark? Traditionally, an explanation has been found in the so-called ‘religious use’ of the notion of the ‘messenger on the mountain’ in Isa 40:9 and 52:7, paving the way for an understanding of Jesus’s death as a sin sacrifice connected to Isa 53. Under the influence of recent postcolonial and/or anti-imperial reading strategies, however, Mark’s gospel notion has rather been understood as tailored to counter a Roman dressing of the emperor as ‘gospels’ to the world. Morten Horning Jensen re-investigates the entire concept of ‘gospel’ and concludes that Mark uses the concept to communicate the ‘epoch-making victory’ he finds to be the product of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

Mark Meditations on the Gospel of Mark


Free Download Mark: Meditations on the Gospel of Mark By Adrienne von Speyr
2012 | 750 Pages | ISBN: 1586177761 | EPUB | 1 MB
These meditations on the Gospel of Mark, with the exception of the second part on the Passion, were given by Adrienne von Speyr between 1945 and 1958 to members of the Community of St. John, which she founded with the renowned theologian, Fr. Hans Urs von Balthasar. Adrienne is speaking to young adults who have decided to live the state of the evangelical counsels in a secular profession, as part of a recently established secular institute. Nevertheless this contemplative commentary can be very useful for all who seek to meditate on Holy Scripture. As always, Adrienne here draws from the abundance of her own contemplation which keeps continually in view the harmonious unity of Christian dogmatic truth; she gives to others what has been offered to her in contemplation, without exegetical notes or any attempt at scholarship. Since she is speaking to novices, the train of thought is simple and practical, yet rich in depth. The points for meditation are not primarily for spiritual reading, but an introduction to personal prayer. They are meant only to point out a path, because it is the Holy Spirit who directs contemplative prayer in all liberty. As one reads through this book, he will find in it a kind of synthesis of Adrienne von Speyr’s spirituality. This work will also be very useful to preachers, catechists, pastors, communities and institutes who have understood with Pope Benedict XVI that It is time to reaffirm the importance of prayer in the face of the activism and the growing secularism of many Christians engaged in charitable work.
