Uitleg van het Evangelie van Markus

by J.C. Ryle, K.W. van Luik (Translator)

In 1857 publiceerde J.C. Ryle zijn commentaar op Markus. Het was een van zijn eerste geschriften. Hij was toen predikant te Helmingham. Later zou hij, mede dankzij zijn heldere en Bijbelse geschriften, aangesteld worden tot anglicaans aartsbisschop van Liverpool.
Zijn commentaar op Markus biedt een goede uitleg, vergezeld van een praktische toepassing. Deze uitleg van het evangelie van Markus door een grootheid uit de kerkgeschiedenis laat bekende passages opnieuw tot leven komen.

About the author

(John Charles Ryle) Ryle started his ministry as curate at the Chapel of Ease in Exbury, Hampshire, moving on to become rector of St Thomas's, Winchester in 1843 and then rector of Helmingham, Suffolk the following year. While at Helmingham he married and was widowed twice. He began publishing popular tracts, and Matthew, Mark and Luke of his series of Expository Thoughts on the Gospels were published in successive years (1856-1858). His final parish was Stradbroke, also in Suffolk, where he moved in 1861, and it was as vicar of All Saints that he became known nationally for his straightforward preaching and firm defence of evangelical principles. He wrote several well-known and still-in-print books, often addressing issues of contemporary relevance for the Church from a biblical standpoint. He completed his Expository Thoughts on the Gospels while at Stradbroke, with his work on the Gospel of John (1869). His third marriage, to Henrietta Amelia Clowes in 1861, lasted until her death in 1889.
