Sažetak
Starting from a previously conducted research and explanation of wider premises of Jesus’s open anthropology, the author has tried to deepen and confirm previously reached insights on a small but important passage of the Gospel of Mark. For that purpose, he applied exegetical‑analytic method on two logia, Mk 8:34‑35. He interprets both logia, on the one hand, within the frame of the wider theological context of Jesus’s journey to Jerusalem and his triple announcement of passion, and, on the other hand, by employing detailed semantic analysis of certain terms within the structure of the first announcement of passion, death, and resurrection. The analysis showed that both logia address a person who is called to be Jesus’s disciple in the freedom of decision, but from which flow, consequently, certain demands in the form of existential imperatives. Both logia talk about life and its realisation through the paradoxical logic of gaining through losing and losing through gaining, expressed in Jesus’s concrete destiny as the hermeneutical key of open anthropology.
