2 The Beginning of the Gospel of Jesus
Series Mark
THE GOSPEL
Mark 1:1-8
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God (KJV);
This, the title of the whole book is presented in the first verse. This sentence is a verbless sentence. John Mark begins to tell the story in a very rapid manner of the appearance of God the Son, Jesus on this earth. As Mark will relate to us this Jesus is a fulfillment of prophecy. The Nation Israel has expected Him for several thousand years and now He had arrived. Mark chooses to present Jesus without any genealogy or early history because Jesus is portrayed as the suffering servant here and Mark wants to quickly proclaim why He came and move to verify His authenticity. He is starting his narrative of Jesus, which is the inauguration of His ministry or the beginning of the gospel.
