What is the significance of the trial and death of Jesus in the Gospel of Mark? The contributions presented here represent an up-to-date expression of one of the most important themes in Markan exegesis. The editors use the metaphor of a prism to illustrate the two sections of the book. Like a concave prism spreading light, the first section presents a range of understandings of the meaning of the death of Jesus. Like a convex prism focusing light, the second section uses multiple methodologies to focus attention on the trial of Jesus. The papers together raise questions, challenge common views, and interrelate themes that push Markan scholarship forward.
