Summary
The »gospel« is a keyword of the Gospel of Mark. But what does it mean to Mark? This has been debated for more than a century in scholarly research. Morten Hørning Jensen investigates the notion of Mark's 'gospel' afresh, and concludes that Mark uses it to communicate the 'epoch-making' reversal of fortunes he sees as the victorious outcome of Jesus's life, death, and resurrection.
