Zusammenfassung: | In this article, my goal is to survey the two principal backgrounds for the darkness in Mark 15:33–39, examining the existing objections against their use by the evangelist and reinforcing their likelihood. In discussing the Greco-Roman parallels an attempt will be made to refine the existing pool of parallels, identifying the accounts that are most relevant to Mark 15:33–39. Then, it will be possible to ask whether Joel Marcus’s interpretation of the darkness as demonic (Anchor Bible Commentaries on Mark 1-8 [2000]; Mark 8-16 [2009]) is compatible with these likely backgrounds. |
