Abstract

Mark’s only direct reference to the reader of his Gospel (Mark 13:14) has long fascinated interpreters. But what kind of reading event is presumed in this authorial aside? This essay compares Mark 13:14 to similar interpretive asides from the commentarial traditions of ancient schools. Through analysis of relevant material from Epictetus, the author of this essay demonstrates that a reader’s comprehension of authoritative texts was a primary objective of ancient education. He further shows that the practice of drawing a reader’s attention to particular interpretive conundrums is well evidenced in ancient commentaries like Origen’s Commentary on Matthew and the commentaries of Philo. The author argues that this evidence from pedagogical reading events can fruitfully illuminate Mark 13:14, and can help us to theorize better about the social setting of Mark’s Gospel.

“让读者理解”
马可唯一直接提到他的福音(马可福音13:14)的读者,长期以来一直吸引着口译员。但是,在这篇作者的文章中,又假定了什么样的阅读事件呢?这篇文章将马可福音13:14与来自古代学派评论传统的类似解释性旁白进行了比较。本文通过对《史诗》相关资料的分析,论证了读者对权威文本的理解是古代教育的首要目标。他进一步表明,吸引读者注意特定解释难题的做法在古代评论中得到了很好的证明,如奥里金的《马太福音评论》和菲罗的评论。作者认为,这些来自教学阅读事件的证据可以有效地阐明马可福音13:14,并可以帮助我们更好地理论化马可福音的社会背景。
