Description: "In Hearing the Whole Story, Richard Horsley uncovers what is really at stake in Mark's Gospel. From tracing the plot and subplot to understanding how the Gospel was first heard and performed, Horsley tackles old questions from new angles. By the innovative use of sociological categories and method he shows how the Jesus of this Gospel challenged the dominant order of his day. The result is a thorough and engaging analysis of the Gospel of Mark."--BOOK JACKET.
