Default re the allegory in the gospel of mark

a few months ago, there is a thread here which included a post with a link to a page on the gospel of Mark. The page on the gospel of Mark claimed that there were various allegorical and symbolic things in Mark, as simple as the name Arimathea and other things such as the 2 feedings of the 5000 and then the 4000, and the leftover baskets of 12 and 7 representing Israel and the Gentiles.

Does anyone remember where that page is?

thanks!

Are you thinking of Michael Turton's page?

I don't think so . . . this one had some of the more interesting symbols all in a single page

Joseph of Arimethea, a pun for better disciple

the first feeding meaning for the people of Israel
the journey across the lake
the 2nd feeing meaning for the Gentiles

and some other things

Maybe RG Price's website? "The Gospel of Mark as Reaction and Allegory":
