Serving as a sequel to Professor Burkill's Mysterious Revelation (Cornell University Press, 1963), these closely related essays not only develop and clarify points made in the previous work, but also break new ground. The author supplements his earlier observations on Mark, and in an exegetical chapter, he discusses Mark's philosophical views and the antinomies within the gospel. An analysis and critique of the work of Etienne Trocmé, a distinguished New Testament scholar, is offered in the final chapter.
