Christology and Discipleship in the Gospel of MarkExploring the interrelated topics of Christology and discipleship within the apocalyptic context of Mark's Gospel, Henderson focuses on six passages: Mark 1: 16 20; 3: 13 15; 4: 1 34; 6: 7 13; 6: 32 44; 6: 45 52. Together, these passages indicate that the disciples failed to understand not just Jesus' messianic identity per se but the apocalyptic nature of his messiahship, as well as its implications for their own participation in God's coming reign.
