Yeah, yeah. He's using it a lot for such a short book. And it really gives us, I think, a sense of a kind of a rapid fire narrative about And so people who say, well, I don't like Mark because it's not as expansive as Luke and Matthew. Well, this could be that rapid-fire look at the gospel. Another thing that's very interesting is the organization of the material in Mark.

And what I mean by that is that Mark has a way, has a tendency, I should say, to organize the gospel by a type of material. So we have miracles, and you have parables, You have controversies, and it's not so much thematic like faith and that type of thing like you would expect. And it's important for the reader to realize that the material is organized.

It's not just a random telling, but he really is organizing it. But the one thing, Father, that I like about Mark, and when I teach this, I'm always using Mark to do this, and you can use the other Gospels as well, and that is that Mark utilizes in a masterful way Jesus' ability to use questions when he teaches.

And Jesus uses over ten different ways to implement questions, that a question could be rhetorical, a question could be a lesson in itself, like, you know, rhetorical. He can use questions to reveal a person's heart. He can use questions to cut off those who are coming against him and trap them in a way.

And so I think that Mark really, really showcases the wisdom and the cleverness of Jesus in how he taught. And he does this, and he also explains it. So, you know, some people think that the audience of Mark was Christians who were not as familiar with the Jewish backgrounds, and so Mark has a tendency to explain these things. That's what I think.

to them so that they would understand in the same way that John will see does the same thing. He's gonna bring up Jewish concepts and then he kind of pauses and says, well, this is what it means.

Yeah, right, right. Yeah, rabbi, which means teacher. And then there's one more thing, this last thing that I would mention, and that is that Mark's gospel is not just interested in concepts. His gospel that he's giving us is focused on deeds.
