No and because of my poor English there never will be one.

Thanks Joe.

Since "Mark" does have overall themes of Jesus being "the son of man" and "lord" I think the best you can do here is what ASV has "so that the Son of man is lord even of the sabbath". "Son of man" refers to Jesus, "lord" is Jesus' relation...

Our Bernard has quoted a nice list of similarities between Lincoln and Kennedy (as a counterargument). Even if you disagree with him, it's great fun! Note especially the last point. Don't tell me. Bernard completely sidesteps Carrier's and dozens of other scholars' arguments related to the literary...

Note that the genitive form is within the phrase. This phrase has the exact same form within the question of this Thread. This suggests that the genitive relationship of the larger phrase of this Thread is only that the lord is possessive of the Sabbath. The Greek "καὶ" has a broader mean...

It seems counterintuitive not to see two genitives being joined by the καὶ and modifying υἱὸς. Yes, that is exactly the point. It seems that without context no one would translate with "is Lord even of the Sabbath". :mrgreen: I think they take the greater context of the passage as decisiv...

Similarly, "Mark" (author) invokes the name "David" a few more times than he does "Isaiah" and again appears to have a connected theme which supports the answer to the question of this Thread as "42", er, sorry, that "Lord of the Sabbath" is "M...
