Perspectives on the Ending of Mark
December 18, 2012 textual criticism No CommentsRecently, I read the book titled, Perspectives on the Ending of Mark 4 Views, edited by David Alan Black. This book focuses on one of the most important problems in New Testament textual criticism. The book is a compilation of papers that were read at a conference entitled “The Last Twelve Verses of Mark: Original or Not,” held April 13-14, 2007, at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Perspectives are presented by: Daniel Wallace, Maurice Robinson, Keith Elliott, David Alan Black and Darrell Bock. Bock presents a summary of the earlier writers and then gives his own assessment of the textual problem. I have posted my own review of this book on my blog under Book Reviews. I would welcome your comments. If you desire to make a comment, please click on the comments box and you will be taken to a page where you can reply.
