If you're looking for a book to invigorate your devotional time, small group, or Sabbath school, try George R. Knight's "Exploring Mark: A Devotional Commentary" The brief chapters take readers on a systematic journey through the Gospel of Mark, and are short enough to be read while eating breakfast or before turning out the lights at bedtime. The publisher also offers a free study guide that can be downloaded for use with small groups or Sabbath school.Mark's gospel is thought to be the source of much material covered in Matthew and Luke's gospels. Each chapter of Knight's commentary begins with a fresh translation from the original Greek language, followed by insights from Knight's years of scholarship as a seminary professor at Andrews University. However, Knight does not unnecessarily resort to technical language or theological gymnastics to impress his readers. Knight's commentary is very accessible and provides a refreshing look at Mark's portrayal of Jesus as the Man of action.
