Mark 1-8:26 (Word Biblical Commentary)

Recommended by Dr. Dan G. McCartney
Professor of New Testament
at Westminster Theological Seminary

Dr.McCartney writes: Only the first half of the commentary on Mark was published before the author's death. It is both exhaustive and insightful. The second half (Mark 8:27-16:20) was written by Craig Evans, and is also competent but not as invigorating.
