Mark Outline By: J. Hampton Keathley, III

With the theme of the book being that of Christ the Servant. The key verse, 10:45, provides the key for two natural divisions of the Gospel: the Servant’s service (1:1-10:52) and the Servant’s sacrifice (11:1-16:20). We can divide this into five simple sections:

I.The Preparation of the Servant for Service (1:1-13)

II.The Preaching of the Servant in Galilee (1:14-9:50)

III.The Preaching of the Servant in Perea (10:1-52)

IV.The Passion of the Servant in Jerusalem (11:1-15:47)

V.The Prosperity of the Servant in Resurrection (16:1-20)
