R.H. Lightfoot's 'St. John's a Commentary' reached a wide new audience as 'Oxford Paperback No. 5'. In this short book, the author examines, with the same beautiful lucidity and deep insight, various aspects of the message of St. Mark.
Clear, well-argued, level-headed exposition. Easy to read and with stimulating discussion. I sought out this work for his reflections on Mark 13 and was not disappointed. Much food for thought.
