Document Details : Title: Der gebundene Starke (Mk 3,27) als markinisches Programm einer Umwertung der Werte Author(s): SCHAPDICK, Stefan Journal: Biblica Volume: 95 Issue: 4 Date: 2014 Pages: 546-569 DOI: 10.2143/BIB.95.4.3186130 Abstract : Mk 3,27 offers various functions within the context of the Second Gospel narrative. First, pertaining to the successful exorcisms of Jesus, it refuses allegations of Jesus being an ally of Satan (Mk 3,22). Mk 3,27 depicts Satan as the incapacitated strong man, no one Jesus might be in league with. Second, by assigning the role of the nameless criminal to Jesus the verse ridicules perceptions which portray him as a religious and social misfit (Mk 3,21-22.30). By acting 'feloniously' against Satan and later dying as a convicted felon in Jerusalem Jesus solely executes God’s final soteriological will. |
