Enclosed in the following pages is a commentary on the Gospel of Mark. It is from the old (1800's) Expositor series. The work is scholarly, insightful and valuable. Today's commentaries, many of them, are scholarly, but lack the warmth and "aliveness" of this work. I hope its contents will be as nourishing to your heart as it has been to mine.
