Chapter 1 Mark's Homeric Epic and the Gospel of Odysseus SN6 (Premier)

Not only did the author for Mark borrow heavily from the Septuagint and the Jewish Roman War by Josephus to hand craft stories for his Jesus, but he also borrowed from Homer's Bibles, the Odyssey and the Illiad to make comparisons between the ancient Greek heroes Odysseus and Hector to his Jesus and to demonstrate that Homer's ideas were old and outdated, thus, Jesus was the update merging two culturally classic works into one; the Greek Septuagint and the Odyssey. The source material in this series is Denis MacDonald's Homer in Mark
