A Theological Unity of Markan Intercalations- Juxtaposition of Old and New Covenants - Daniel Sisler.mp3

Engaging biblical theology, Gospel studies, and literary analysis, this talk contributes to discussions on Markan theology, covenant continuity, and narrative hermeneutics. A talk from the 2025 Annual Meeting of the ETS Eastern Region. The theme of the meeting was The Wisdom of Scripture for Worship in the Church.
