Faith as a Theme in Mark's Narrative

'This book is clearly and compellingly written, it commends new ways of understanding the gospels without resorting to fancifulness, and it presents a thesis which commends itself as thoroughly persuasive … Could well become an introduction for students into how to understand the gospels.' New Blackfriars
