Moral Accountability according to Mark
In studies related to ethics and the NT, the Gospel of Mark remains on the fringe. Overshadowed by Matthew's Sermon on the Mount (Matt 5:2-7:27; cf. 10:5-42; 23:2-39; 24:4-25:46) or Luke's Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:20-49; cf. 10:2-37; 11:2-13, 29-52; 19:11-27), Mark continues to be mined...

| Summary: | In studies related to ethics and the NT, the Gospel of Mark remains on the fringe. Overshadowed by Matthew's Sermon on the Mount (Matt 5:2-7:27; cf. 10:5-42; 23:2-39; 24:4-25:46) or Luke's Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:20-49; cf. 10:2-37; 11:2-13, 29-52; 19:11-27), Mark continues to be mined by scholars for themes related to christology, discipleship, and empire, while ethics or morality are sidelined. Utilizing categories proposed by Leander Keck for Pauline ethics, I attempt to highlight the theological nature of Gospel of Mark's moral life. When framed in terms of accountability to God, Mark's Jesus's opaque words and actions may be seen as directed by God the parent, authority, and judge. |
