About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The Gospel According to St. Mark, Volume 1 by John Daniel Jones. Read in English by InTheDesert. Bible students and Bible readers have long felt the necessity for some commentary which should aim simply and solely at helping the spiritual life of those who use it. The Religious Tract Society is now producing a series of volumes designed to fill this gap. In every case the aim has been so to comment upon the words of Holy Scripture as to help the spiritual life of the reader. There has, of course, been some treatment of perplexing passages and a steady attempt to draw out the general character as well as the particular lessons of each book. - Summary by Series Preface
