Mark's Gospel: A Rapid Fire Narrative

Many people have said that it is highly likely that as Mark and Peter were close. A lot of the themes that he brings about are relating to those which Peter is interested in for sure. But no doubt, no doubt Mark learned from Peter, you know, and it could be through his eyes as well. He uses 41 times, 41 times the word immediately. And so he's always talking about immediately and it's an average of two times per chapter. It really gives us a sense of a kind of a rapid fire narrative.
