Divine Government: God's Kingship in the Gospel of Mark - R. T. France

Descriere Divine Government: God's Kingship in the Gospel of Mark - R. T. France

\nR.T. France believes that much of today's popular use of kingdom language runs the risk of distorting Jesus' words, and trivializing the depth and richness of his teaching. This book will help many Christians avoid that risk, while also providing helpful and persuasive answers to a range of questions thrown up by modern scholarship. What would the Kingdom of God have meant to Mark's first readers? Is kingdom the best translation? What did Jesus mean when he said the kingdom would come with power? And what are we to make of those passages which seem to predict the coming of the Son of Man within the lifetime of the first disciples? R. T. France has taught at London Bible College and was principal of Wycliffe Hall, Oxford, from 1989 to 1995. He is the author of Matthew in the Tyndale New Testament Commentary series, The Evidence for Jesus, The Living God, and Jesus and the Old Testament.
