This was the earliest New Testament gospel and was written for people familiar with the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE. The use of mimesis flags suggests the possibility that he sought to keep outsiders in the dark as to what Christians really believed. This is parallelled by Chapter 4, where he talks of Jesus speaking in parables so that others would not understand.
So it may be that there were really two audiences for Mark's Gospel - outsiders such as the Romans and the Jewish religious leaders, and the Christian converts who would really understand what the Gospel was meant to say. In Mark's Gospel, only outsiders such as demons and the high priest refer to Jesus as 'Son of God', suggesting a level of caution was needed.
