Recognising that the use of emotional appeals was a prime contemporary rhetorical tool, it shows the Gospel to be an emotionally-charged text aimed at readers traumatised by years of persecution, fear of arrest and intra-community tensions over the forgiveness of those who had failed. It examines the political, social and religious situation and shows that the Gospel contains allusions to many recent events of concern to Christians. Mark stirs their fears and painful memories to move them to a new resolve, providing a model for them - Jesus, the first martyr for the gospel. 410 0$aBiblical interpretation series ;$vv. 65. 606 $aRhetoric in the Bible 615 0$aRhetoric in the Bible. 676 $a226.3/066 700 $aIncigneri$b Brian J$01750293 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817570003321 996 $aThe Gospel to the Romans$94184889 997 $aUNINA
