Mark Part 8

Mark 15:16-39
Read Mark 15:16-39 several times then answer the following questions: 1) How many times does the phrase, King of the Jews appear in this passage (including 1-15)? What is ironic about this? What is Mark trying say about the events at the cross?

2) Read Psalm 22. How does this help you understand the words of Jesus from the cross in verse 34?

3) Why do you think the events at the cross as recorded by Mark were necessary?

4) Read Isaiah 53:7-9, how does Jesus silence communicate his identity?

5) In verse 39 what are the final words used to describe Jesus? Now reread the first verse of Mark. Why do you think Mark used the same title to describe Jesus at both the beginning of his gospel and at the end?

6) What do the events at the cross teach us what it means to follow Jesus?
