Описание: The decennial Census is the US Government`s largest statistical undertaking, and it costs billions of dollars in planning, execution, and analysis.
Scholarship and determined exploration of ancient sources for the canonical gospel of Mark has brought great rewards for the writer and readers of The Ending of Mark's Gospel. Peter Lewis's work has indeed provided new 'understanding of the gospels'. The reasons for and impact of variations in the form of the ending of Mark has been speculated on for a long time. Dr Lewis puts a credible case for a reconstructed original ending while providing multiple peripheral insights. His work challenges some long-held assumptions and makes worthy corrections to previous scholarship. This is a theological adventure in forensic classical philology and reads like an unfolding mystery novel with the evidence building for his 'case'. An enjoyable read that takes theology and contemporary Jesus studies into a new era of thinking.
