Abstract

There is an increasing number of academic works that revise the literary and theological links between the Gospel of Mark and the original letters of Paul. In addition, many scholars identify similar questions and answers shared by these literary works. Among the common issues, it stands the negative portrayal of (some of) the Twelve and (some of) the Jesus’ Family. However, Mark seems to depict twelve secondary characters in his gospel with some of the traits that the Twelve do not show. In this article we search for pauline peculiarities on these secondary characters of the gospel of Mark.
