Summary:In Mark's Gospel Jesus warns his opponents against committing blasphemy in their evaluation of his ministry (3:28–29). Conversely, Jesus' opponents accuse him of blasphemy at his trial (14:64). Such language tends to characterize intra-Judaic religious controversy in the first century. Mark, the implied author of the second Gospel, uses the language of religious conflict rhetorically in his narrative to persuade his implied reader to accept the authority of Jesus' message as expressed in his story and to reject the counterclaims of Jesus' opponents.
