Re: The Skeptical Critical Commentary - Gospel of Mark
Markan Prioritism is the result of a lack of criticism and scepticism.

JW:
For Skeptical Textual Criticism the most important categories of evidence are Theme and Style. Regarding the candidate for originality at the end of 1:8, and fire, there does not appear to be any other verse in GMark that connects with that and specifically "Mark's" use of the word is only Chapter 9 with the unquenchable fire and the hot irony that people in Hell will be "salted"(preserved) with fire. In "Mark's" spiritual diechotomy world it ironically balances/reverses that the holy spirit gives eternal life and whatever is the opposite gives eternal death. Thus no clear theme/style for the use of "fire" here.
The star of the Textual support for fire is "Matthew" and "Luke". But they have a lot of surrounding agreement against GMark which then makes it look like Q is their source for "fire". The other textual support for "fire" can be explained by assimilation to "Matthew" and "Luke".
The Skeptical Critical Commentary thus judges "and fire" as an addition.

X-Curses 1:4-1:8 Chiasm?
JW:
Per The Skeptical Critical Commentary the first Paulicope in GMark is 1:4-1:8. It's generally accepted that GMark is Chrestfilled with chiasms. Enough time has now passed since Chrest's imminent return that most readers of this unholy Forum have never heard of The Legendary Vorkosigan. Well here is an introduction to Vorkmeister, The King of The CJieswm (Chiasms):
Historical Commentary on the Gospel of Mark
The Vorkmeister's ability to squeeze out chias Jews throughout GMark is so good it could make Neil Godfree turn Jew. Yet Vork
confesses that he is unable to yank a chiasm out of 1:1-1:8. Well how bout 1:4-1:8?:
