Dive into the opening scene of the Gospel of Mark with an emphasis on how Jesus’ arrival fulfills Old Testament expectations. Learn how Mark’s fast-paced narrative structure draws from messianic themes in the Hebrew Scriptures, anchoring the good news in Isaiah’s vision of Yahweh’s return. Examine John the Baptist’s role as forerunner and the theological meaning of baptism, repentance, and the kingdom of God.

Verses: Mark 1:2-13; Isa. 40:1-11; Mal. 3:1; Isa. 52:7-10
