Excerpt from St. Mark: Introduction, Revised Version With Notes, Index and Map
A word of explanation seems called for as to the larger scale upon which the notes on St. Mark are written as compared with the companion Gospels in this series. T he fact is that the literary relations be tween the first three Gospels in virtue of which they are called 'synoptic', and which constitute what is called The Synoptic Problem appeared to demand that somewhere in these Commentaries those relations and certain topics bound up with them should be dealt with somewhat systematically and fully. But if so, the Commentary on St. Mark was the most con venient place. For St. Mark is the fundamental extant document for the problem in question, con taining as it does most of the Synopsis or general view of Jesus' earthly ministry, particularly that in Galilee, common to the first three Gospels: and further the very fact that it is the shortest of the three allowed more easily of this extra matter, as well as of some extended discussion of other topics of historical.

Excerpt from St. Mark: Introduction, Revised Version With Notes, Index and Map
'A succession of pictures in which a painter represents a complete history or rather his interpretation of a unique person and his mission on earth.' This description of the first three Gospels fairly expresses what they are. And of the three 'the Cartoons of St. Mark,' as Dr. Horton has happily phrased it, with their Giotto-like simplicity and vividness, present us with the most primitive and elemental of the extant interpretations of the Gospel in terms of the Person in whom it came from God to men. Further, that Mark's Gospel is the ground-sketch of the evangelical narratives generally, and that it forms a controlling factor in their affinities as to incidents, order of narration, and even verbal style, is the opinion now generally entertained by scholars. This means that it is looked at now from a new point of view and assumes a fresh importance, especially for the historian and all who prize most chiefly the original impression left by the sheer historic facts upon the actual witnesses of Him who
With human hands the creed of creeds,
In loveliness of perfect deeds
More strong than all poetic thought.
The change of sentiment which has taken place on the subject of the Second Gospel is indeed one of the most notable facts in the history' of New Testament studies in our day. In ancient times little was made of this Gospel in comparison with its longer and fuller companions. Its genius was not sufficiently understood. Its special value was not adequately recognized.
