This book takes a close look at the <I>theme of the shepherd </I>in the Gospel of Mark and how it relates to different motifs in the narrative. Jesus' seeing the condition of the crowd and his <I>teaching </I>and <I>nourishing </I>the crowd in the wilderness, allude to the shepherding activities of Yahweh in the Old Testament. The motif of <I>nourishment </I>continues, when Jesus extends his care towards the Gentile woman and later to a crowd in a Gentile region. Interestingly, the motif of -way- introduced in the prologue merges with the <I>theme of the shepherd </I>in the epilogue of the narrative, when Jesus leads his disciples, the -scattered sheep-, to Galilee."
