Kevin W. Larsen holds a Ph.D. in Biblical Studies with an emphasis on the New Testament from the Catholic University of America, Washington, DC. He is Professor of New Testament, and the Director of Institutional Research and Effectiveness at Roanoke Bible College, Elizabeth City, North Carolina.
Larsen offers several helpful insights concerning the function of
[Mark 8:22-9:13] in relation to one another and within the larger
Markan context.
*Catholic Biblical Quarterly*
The volume displays thorough and exemplary exegesis. The author
commences by placing the structure of the text within the broader
Markan narrative.... Larsen identifies extensive connections
between this passage and both the preceding and following material,
eventually identifying these central verses as a hinge section
(59). Because of the broad nature of such discussions, the volume
is a valuable contribution to the study of the structure of Mark as
a whole. After analyzing the structure, Larses performs
verse-by-verse exegesis. Professors and their students will
appreciate the detail and clarity of Larsen's approach to text,
grammar, and syntax.... Those using the volume for preaching would
do well to spend considerable time in those theological
sections.... These characteristics [technical language], as well as
the volume's rigorous exegesis in general, suggest readership at
the seminary level and above.
*Stone-Campbell Journal*
[Seeing and Understanding Jesus] is thorough and an exemplary
exegesis. . . . [and] is a valuable contribution to the study of
the structure of Mark as a whole.
