This book is an introduction to the Gospel of Mark, paying special attention to its theological message. Proposing a new understanding of Mark's Gospel, this book states that its central idea is the recognition of Jesus as the son of God, a claim made at the beginning, the middle, and the end of the Gospel. The contribution of this book is that the recognition of Jesus as the son of God is only possible through the action of the Holy Spirit that Jesus gives at his death. Upon this idea, the author studies other major ideas of the Gospel such as Jesus's own designation as the son of man, the coming of the kingdom of God, the revelatory message of the miracles of Jesus, and the identity of the disciples.
