Summary: | The messianic secret is a major literary device in the Gospel of Mark. Mk 14:62 or 15:39 have been pointed out as the place where the messianic secret is disclosed. The passage of Mk 14:62 has been preserved in two readings: a shorter reading (??? ????) and a longer one (????? ??? ??? ????). If the reading with ego eimi (a clear answer) is the original one, the messianic secret is clearly disclosed in Mk 14:62. If the reading with su eipas hoti ego eimi (a reserved answer) is the earlier one, the messianic secret remains until Mk 15:39. This study argues that ego eimi is the original version and that Mk 14:62 constitutes the formal disclosure of the messianic secret. The centurion's confession in Mk 15:39 is subordinate to the confession of Jesus in Mk 14:62. |
