For over 100 years the International Critical Commentary has had a special place amongst works on the Bible. In this fourth and final volume, Craig S. Keener continues his in-depth critical and exegetical commentary of the Gospel of Mark. Keener brings together all the relevant aids to exegesis - linguistic, textual, archaeological, historical, literary and theological - to provide a complete overview and understanding of this crucial Christian document. Keener incorporates new evidence available in the field and applies new methods of studies. As is a hallmark of the series, the volumes on Mark are not bound by a single theological or critical approach, but rather present a comprehensive view of the text at hand.
