Kata Markon

["Rick Frommich" <eugor3 AT hotmail.com>]

It amazes me that anyone would want to maintain that the compiler of Mark 
was unaware of classical Greek Literature after seeing the "parallels" and 
similarities between his work and the Odyssey. It is also apparent to me 
that the crucifixion scene in Mark with the taunting of the one crucified 
reflects the influence of the classic Play, Prometheus Bound. Now on top of 
these things we have the theme of obtuseness on the part of those who hear 
Jesus. Obtuseness, is not only an important theme for Mark but, In PB it is 
the very reason for which the main character, Prometheus, decides to save 
humankind.

Saying that there is absolutely no connection here is begging the question, 
(from my perspective of course}.
