"It is good to have in this monograph a heavy concentration on the empty tomb tradition in Mark's Gospel. Up to this point, scholarly attention has concentrated on  appearance traditions elsewhere in the New Testament. So this book fills a gap.  Moreover, the author pursues questions concerning Mark's empty tomb tradition  from nearly every conceivable angle. We have here an excellent interplay of various  sorts of criticism - textual, form, redaction, tradition, historical, and literary - plus considerations of theology and even some of historiography and philosophical hermeneutics. Dr. Waterman proposes a largely new perspective, argued in an interdisciplinary fashion that to my knowledge is distinctive." - Robert H. Gundry
