Abstract: | <p>This inquiry is conducted from the standpoint of Redaktionsgeschichte: Attention is focused on the gospel framework and the articulation of traditions in order to formulate the theological position of the Evangelist.</p> <p>The study seeks to discover the exact purpose which governed Mark's representation of the disciples as uncomprehending in the redaction of his Gospel. It begins by examining the problem of interpretation which is evident from the history of Marcan scholarship. It then examines the symbolism and structure of the redaction with a view to uncovering themes and motifs which hopefully give an insight into Mark's intentions in writing.</p> <p>The conclusion maintains that the motif of the incomprehension of the disciples is very significant in the understanding of the Second Gospel. It is typology per contrarius which sets into sharper focus what the christian catechuren must understand to be initiated into the Mystery of Christ.</p> |
