Can you pick out the problem with that theory?
-
The reason we have the Messianic secret in Mark is
-
because people knew that
-
Jesus was not openly proclaimed as the Messiah during his lifetime,
-
so this was a literary device to explain
-
why Jesus wasn't known in his lifetime is
-
because Jesus kept it a secret.
-
What's wrong with this theory? Yes, ma'am.
-
There's one place where he does say, go tell.
-
The binding of the strong man.
-
Other problems with the theory?
-
The people tell anyway.
