Subject: Secret Gospel of Mark
There was a recent lengthy string about the _Secret Gospel of Mark_
published by Morton Smith. Those interested may want to read a reent
article
A. H. Criddle, "On the Mar Saba Letter Attributed to Clement of
Alexandria," _Journal of Early Christian Studies_ 2,3 (Summer 1995)
215-220.
Criddle argues that the Clement letter is spurious and that _Secret Mark_
is therefore of dubious authenticity. His argument is based on a model of
vocabulary statisitics that he and an analysis of uaantitative rhythms.

Sorry to say, I am signing off of B-Greek until early August because of a
trip to Turkey and Italy, a family reunion, and then a trip to Prague for
the meeting of SNTS. I hope I can discover on my return what reaction you
have to all this.
Have a good summer.

The NT did not appear over night. There was development in the
traditions before the intervening years from Jesus death until
the written records. You make it sound as if "orthodoxy" was
born immediately in 33 CE and that the apostles (and all others)
immediately had it all figured out.
As far as your other comments, I will respond later. I am
leaving for the summer and will have a new e-mail address in a
week or so.

As I mentioned in my previous note, I am leaving the list
immediately for about a week. But let me give you just one
reference.
If memory serves me, the "Son of God" article in *ABD* will
answer the questions you raised, including the one about
references. Especially in the ". . . in the NT" section it will
deal with the "echoes" that I talked about. There are many NT
passages treated there, and I will not take the time to list
them here.
Bye for now.

Subject: God's Word (again)
The 'God's Word' Bible has finally reached the UK and I have just
obtained a copy.
I remember a few weeks ago there was some discussion on this list
of the merits and demerits of this translaton. If any of you have a
digenst of the pertinent points in that discussion I would be very
grateful if you could send me a copy.
Thanks for your help.
