1 Bishop s Diocesan Reader Conference 2014 Read, Mark, Learn Session 3 Miracles in the Gospel of Mark
2 1 The uneven distribution of miracles in Mark s Gospel 15 in chapters 1-8: 8 healings, 3 exorcisms, & 4 other miracles, including at least 1 in each chapter and all 3 summary statements ) 3 in chapters healing, 1 exorcism, 1 other miracle
3 Read, Mark, Learn Healings : Simon s mother in law; : a man with leprosy : a paralysed man; 3.1-6: a man with a shrivelled hand : a dead girl : and a sick woman : a deaf and dumb man : a blind man : blind Bartimaeus
4 Exorcisms : a man in Capernaum : a man among the tombs : a Syro-Phoenecian woman s daughter : a boy Other Miracles : the calming of the storm : the feeding of the five thousand : the walking on water : the feeding of the four thousand , 20-21: the withering of the fig-tree
5 Miracle Summaries : summary report of healings and exorcisms : summary statement of healings in Nazareth 6.5: summary report of healings and exorcisms
6 1 The uneven distribution of miracles in Mark s Gospel The miracles establish Jesus credentials as Son of God he is a wonder-worker. But he is also the suffering servant, Son of Man; and the miracles are not party-tricks. Note: the Resurrection is the biggest miracle of all and it s performed on Jesus not by Jesus Jesus will not perform miracles to order ( )
7 2 Miracles are signs: they back up the kingdom message : the exorcisms are a sign that Satan s end has come: the kingdom of darkness is defeated : the healings are signs of the kingdom -- the gospel brings wholeness to individuals * the haemorrhaging woman in chapter 5 * the paralysed man in chapter 2
8 2 Miracles are signs: they back up the kingdom message The other miracles (eg, feedings, stilling of storm) are signs of peace and blessing: the kingdom is creation healed (Kung) But the figtree is cursed and it dies ( ; ). The message of the kingdom is a message of judgement as well as of salvation.
9 3 Miracles to support the Gospel narrative a) The feeding miracles in 6:30-44 and 8:1-10 Jesus has compassion on a hungry crowd; the disciples are clueless what to do about it; the Lord asks them how many loaves they have, they produce an inadequate number, with some small fish; Jesus takes the loaves, gives thanks, breaks them and gives them to his disciples to distribute. Everyone eats enough, and there are basketfuls of scraps left over.
10 a) The feeding miracles in 6:30-44 and 8: Miracles to support the Gospel narrative 1 st story set in Galilee on a hillside overlooking the lake. 2 nd story set in a predominantly Gentile area. 1 st story symbolises blessing of God to Jews through Jesus; 2 nd story hints at blessing for the Gentiles too. Clues in ch 7: 2 stories, an exorcism and a healing, featuring a woman and a man, both Gentiles.
11 b) The healing of the blind men 3 Miracles to support the Gospel narrative ( and ) The two-part healing of the blind man in is odd. It s the only time in any gospel that the healing Jesus brings is not instant; and it is a rare piece of Mark s gospel not to be taken up in any form by either Matthew or Luke. What s going on? Most scholars have concluded it should be seen as a pair with the healing of Bartimaeus in
12 b) The healing of the blind men 3 Miracles to support the Gospel narrative ( and ) Note the position of the story. It comes directly after Jesus has rebuked the disciples for their lack of understanding ( , "Do you have eyes but fail to see...?") It comes directly before Jesus questions his disciples about his identity: "Who do you say that I am" to which Peter rightly responds, "You are the Christ." (8:27-30). But Peter's understanding is only partially correct. His vision is blurred.
13 b) The healing of the blind men 3 Miracles to support the Gospel narrative ( and ) Before the healing of Bartimaeus, Mark s gospel has included The transfiguration and associated warning about the suffering which the Son of Man will face (9.1-13) The second passion prediction and associated teaching about service ( ) The third passion prediction and associated teaching about service ( , ending in the great declaration The Son of Man came not to be served but to serve; and to give his life as a ransom for many.
14 b) The healing of the blind men 3 Miracles to support the Gospel narrative ( and ) The healing Bartimaeus is instant the point is emphasises in 10.52: immediately he regained his sight. But Bartimaeus is a model for discipleship Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the Way (cf Acts 9.2) the way : 8.27, 9.33, 9.34, 10.32
15 b) The healing of the blind men 3 Miracles to support the Gospel narrative ( and ) So the two healings are like book-ends in the central section of the gospel, in which Jesus identity and his destiny are brought into full focus. At the start of the section, the disciples see only partially. By the end, they see clearly. It is clear-sighted disciples who are able to follow Jesus on the Way.
16 Conclusion -- and one final challenge There is a stress in the longer endings of Mark s gospel not just on miracles but on the role of Jesus followers in performing them: Mk : the great commission Mk : the signs confirm the message
17 Conclusion -- and one final challenge Already in chapters 3 and 6 the disciples were not just preaching, but healing and exorcising. What about us? A sobering responsibility for those of us who preach: what signs accompany the preaching and confirm it?

b. Only this gospel uses the name Matthew when Jesus called him to follow Him (Matt 9:9). Mark 2:14 and Luke 5:27-28 call him Levi.
1. Matthew Trying to identify who wrote a gospel, whom it was written to, and why it was written can be challenging as these are not clearly stated. We can find satisfactory answers to these questions
