Mark and the Elijah-Elisha Narrative

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the concept of literary imitation, Adam Winn explores its relevance in analyzing biblical texts, particularly in relation to the Elijah-Elisha narrative from 1 and 2 Kings. By examining the imitative techniques present in Virgil's Aeneid, he demonstrates how these methods illuminate Mark's gospel. Through detailed comparisons of various passages, Winn argues that the Markan evangelist creatively draws upon the Elijah-Elisha narrative, positioning it as a significant source for his writing.
