Table of contents

But more important is how Mark begins his Gospel and how he ends it. He has no account of the virgin birth of Jesus—or for that matter, any birth of Jesus at all. He has no appearances of Jesus following the visit of the women on Easter morning to the empty tomb! Like the other three Gospels Mark recounts the visit of Mary Magdalene and her companions to the tomb of Jesus early Sunday morning. Upon arriving they find the blocking stone at the entrance of the tomb removed and a young man—notice— not an angel —tells them:.

You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified.

Bible: The New Testament

He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you. Mark gives no accounts of anyone seeing Jesus as Matthew, Luke, and John later report. Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.

She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept. But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they would not believe it.

After these things he appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country. And they went back and told the rest, but they did not believe them. Afterward he appeared to the eleven themselves as they were reclining at table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover. So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.

And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by accompanying signs. The evidence is clear. This ending is not found in our earliest and most reliable Greek copies of Mark. Even though this longer ending became the preferred one, there are two other endings, one short and the second an expansion of the longer ending, that also show up in various manuscripts:. And after these things Jesus himself sent out through them, from east to west, the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.

And for those who have sinned I was handed over to death, that they may return to the truth and sin no more, in order that they may inherit the spiritual and incorruptible glory of righteousness that is in heaven. I trust that the self-evident spuriousness of these additions is obvious to even the most pious readers. Since Mark is our earliest Gospel, written according to most scholars around the time of the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in 70 CE, or perhaps in the decade before, we have strong textual evidence that the first generation of Jesus followers were perfectly fine with a Gospel account that recounted no appearances of Jesus.

What most Christians do when they think about Easter is ignore Mark. In other words, no one allows Mark to have a voice. What he lacks, ironically, serves to marginalize and mute him! Alternatively, if we decide to listen to Mark, who is our first gospel witness, what we learn is rather amazing.

Mark knows of no accounts of people encountering the revived corpse of Jesus, wounds and all, walking around Jerusalem. His tradition is that the disciples experienced their epiphanies of Jesus once they returned to Galilee after the eight-day Passover festival and had returned to their fishing in despair. This is precisely what we find in the Gospel of Peter , where Peter says:.

Now it was the final day of the Unleavened Bread; and many went out returning to their home since the feast was over. But we twelve disciples of the Lord were weeping and sorrowful; and each one, sorrowful because of what had come to pass, departed to his home. But I, Simon Peter, and my brother Andrew, having taken our nets, went off to the sea. And there was with us Levi of Alphaeus whom the Lord …. What we see here is precisely parallel to Mark.

Strangely, this tradition shows up in an appended ending to the Gospel of John—chapter 21, where a group of disciples are back to their fishing, and Matthew knows the tradition of a strange encounter on a designated mountain in Galilee, where some of the eleven apostles even doubt what they are seeing Matthew Paul notably parallels his own visionary experience to that of Peter, James, and the rest of the apostles.

What this means is that when Paul wrote, in the 50s CE, this was the resurrection faith of the early followers of Jesus!

Since Matthew, Luke, and John come so much later, and clearly reflect the period after 70 CE when all of the first witnesses were dead—including Peter, Paul, and James the brother of Jesus, they are clearly 2nd generation traditions and should not be given priority.

On one of the ossuaries, or bone boxes in this tomb, is a four-line Greek inscription which I have translated as: I Wondrous Yehovah lift up—lift up! It is a rare thing when our textual evidence seems to either reflect or correspond to the material evidence and I believe in the case of the two Talpiot tombs, and the early resurrection faith reflected in Paul and Mark, that is precisely what we have.

We thank our careful reader James Snapp, Jr. We offer a full exposition of these important discoveries in our recent book, The Jesus Discovery. The book is a complete discussion of both Talpiot tombs with full documentation, with full chapters on Mary Magdalene, Paul, the James ossuary, DNA tests, and much more.

Wow, a lot of comments. In , John A. Broadus examined the twelve verses that precede Mark i. Incredibly, he found in the twelve verses preceding exactly the same number of words and phrases seventeen that are not used previously by Mark!

Plot Overview

Bruce Metzger was not fully represented in this article, so much so that one can say he was misrepresented. His full remark concerning was that Mark is representative of a very early tradition of the church, possibly with apostolic roots. Metzger opined rather pointedly that the long ending of Mark should remain as a part of the canon of NT Scripture. Nice article, but a bit hyperbolic at points. Every one of them includes a footnote explaining that verses 9- 20 are missing from the earliest Greek texts, and early versions in other languages, as well.

Some footnotes elaborate on this a bit more than others, but none of the ones I just read left me with the impression that these verses should be read with anything other than caution. Likewise, he leaves the reader with the impression that those silly Christians have, for centuries, glommed on to these additional verses, despite the fact that they are bogus. His words. While there might be some truth in that assertion, it strikes me as more than a little mean spirited.

Both ancient Syriac and Coptic vesions that predate the 4th century Vaticanus and the Sinaiticus greek versions contain the aforementioned. Also these 2nd century authors, Iraneus, Justin Martyr, Taitian, either quote it or refer to it. As well as these 3rd. Tertullian, Cyprian and the gospel of Nicodemus. If Mark is the earliest, do you think the author tried to free the story from the influence of James the Just, since Matthew has James written all over it? Mark tells the reader in short but clear fact that Jesus appeared to people after the resurrection.

He sat and ate meat with the remaining 11…Judas took his own life…they did not have wine…Jesus is not going to drink of the vine until the day of the marriage of the Lamb to the Church…the feast. James is no friend of Christians and has a bent to debunk Christian truths. The sign of a weak scholar is that after he presents a weak thesis i. Like readers of Huffington Post. But if your first thesis is wrong, all your other work is bogus. Like erroneously citing Metzger.

Mark is for another audience, a synopsis of Matthew and witness of Peter. The truth resonates; this clangs like a poor cymbal. You neglect to point out that Irenaeus and Tatian from the Second century quote directly from the added ending of Mark as scripture. Also Gospel of Nicodemus written prior to the codices, quotes the ending of Mark too.

Chapter 1. The Parts of the World in which the Apostles preached Christ.

Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus of the fourth century, add and omit passages from each other thus we do not know how reliable those copies were in which these codices copied from. Passeges may have been damaged, torn, unreadable or lost and that is why they were not copied into the codices. Codex Alexandrinus, written just 50 years later, does include the ending of Mark and so does Textus Receptus and codex Washingtonius.

I have concluded, before reading about the addition in Mark 16, that such an addition was made, without knowing it beforehand. And not just Mark, but the strategic there was my focus. The gospels and two other citations , present a phrase out of context that time wise, could never have occurred as the phrase would seem to indicate. That phrase, in Greek, has to do with the practice of the counting of the Omer, that is to begin the day of the wave sheaf offering. Originally it indicated the day of the wave sheaf, but Jewish practice, even back then, shows great controversy over this detail, producing arguments between Sadducees and Pharisees both were wrong.

It appears the editors wanted to force rape? Paul warned against false gospels Gal and declared the gospel he preached 1 Cor contains the detail that Messiah rose the third day, according to the Scripture. His intent, which is proven apologetically, is the third day of the week and no other. It has been altered in translation, intends to mean something to Jews that is not conveyed at all in translation to non-Jews, as employed, and its very appearance where it does in the next, suggests it is an addition.

This means that forcing the text has produced false gospel that brings a curse, that is directly effecting the world we live in today. I get that.

If the post-resurrection scenes from the other three Gospels are not authentic, are you in fact saying that two millennia of the hopes of Christian believers are founded on exaggerations? If Jesus Christ did not bodily rise from the dead, we are of all men most to be pitied. He believes that this majority opinion is wrong, but he does not try to hide the fact that this majority scholarly opinion exists. He is but returned 21 June EY Now living in Moscow; but of course one would expect him to be there.
