DESCRIPTION

While Matthew sets forth Christ's Majesty as King, showing that He is the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy, Mark's Gospel depicts Christ's Mastery as the Servant-Son of God.

Dr. McGowan observes that the gospel of Mark abruptly begins the story of the Servant-Son. A servant needs no genealogy or description of early background, but this Servant was and is the Son of God.

The most humbling act for any person is to be the servant of another. Pride and arrogance must be set aside. Yet Jesus Christ, King of kings and Lord of lords came to serve. He set aside His glory and came to dwell among men. Dr. McGowan's commentary will move your heart to service and sacrifice as you get a real picture of the Servant-Son of God.
