Core Glossary

Core Glossary — Mark (Turkish)

Given Mark’s extensive triple-tradition overlap with Matthew, this glossary lists only Mark’s genuinely new or distinctively-Markan terms; parallel passages reuse the Matthew package’s established renderings, noted inline. See 07_semantic_analysis.md for the full discussion.

Coverage confirmation

15 glossary entries span the full 16-chapter sweep, with heaviest concentration in chapters 1, 4-5, 7, 9-10, 13, and 14-16. Parallel triple-tradition passages (chapters 2-3, 6, 8 core passage already treated in Part A, 11-12) reuse Matthew-package vocabulary and are documented in 07_semantic_analysis.md rather than repeated here.
