It is not technical, but I found it a pleasant and encouraging read. But I'm biased, because I love Mark's gospel.Joel Ellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192243014977264815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6378025299582121922.post-15279334198500077152011-12-27T18:48:28.509-05:002011-12-27T18:48:28.509-05:00Thanks, Robert, Mike, and Simon!

In my view, the best recent commentaries are Adela Collins Hermeneia commentary and Joel Marcus for Anchor Bible, for the in-depth knowledge of Greco-Roman and Jewish backgrounds respectively and their in-depth treatments.Mike Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199378581080658092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6378025299582121922.post-21643644547171555322011-12-25T17:26:22.834-05:002011-12-25T17:26:22.834-05:00I've used the Anchor Bible (2 vols) by Marcus,...I've used the Anchor Bible (2 vols) by Marcus, the NIGTC by RT France, NAC by Brooks, and finally the BECNT by Stein.<br /><br />Granted I'm coming from an evangelical perspective but the France and Brooks contributions were very helpful for my exegetical work,Robert Angisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773333199880845898noreply@blogger.com
