Peasants in Mark 15

Definition of peasants.

The clearest representative of peasant people in Mark 15 appears to be Simon the Cyrene. "Coming from the field," he is compelled by the soldiers to carry Jesus' cross for him (15:21).

From V. K. Robbins, Exploring the Texture of Texts, (Valley Forge, PA: Trinity Press International, 1996), p. 84.
