Certainly the "messianic secret", the role of the disciples,? the 
relationship between Markan and Pauline Theology, the
relationship between Mark's Gospel and the Gospel of Caesar (see C.A. Evans 
discussions of this), and the claim of Marcus
and others that the context and occasion of GMark is the Jewish War (with 
side glances at how Mk. 13 fits into this
context and serves as a polemic against the claims of the Zealots and their 
Zion theology).

Yours,

Jeffrey
