Gospel of Mark

The gospel of frames is a way in which he presents Jesus Christ in a way where his human characteristics come to the surface, where the life of the master is exposed, the miracles performed, and everything the great Lord accomplished.

It is important the chronological and historical fact of this gospel, since Marcos narrates the life of Jesus of Nazareth from his baptism by John the Baptist until his resurrection. It is a surprising period of time where I am most impressed when I see what my Lord Jesus Christ suffered when he died for us on the cross.

Historical facts of the composition of the gospel

From the time of Clement of Alexandria at the end of the second century it was held that this gospel was written in Rome, based on the Latinisms that appear in the text, such as denarius or legion. Some of the Latinisms used by Marcos that do not appear in the other gospels are "σπεκουλατορα" ("speculatora", soldiers of the guard; Marcos 6, 27), "ξεστων" (corruption of "sextarius", vase; ) or "κεντυριων" ("centurion"; Mark 15, 39; Mark 15, 44-45). Parallels were also detected between the Gospel of Mark and the Epistle to the Romans of Saint Paul.14.

However, the hypothesis of the Roman origin of the Gospel of Mark was questioned by authors such as Reginald Fuller (A Critical Introduction to the New Testament), given that the Latinisms present in the Marcano gospel are usually terms related to military life, so they were probably words known in all the regions of the Roman Empire in which military garrisons existed. The possibility that it was drafted in Antioch has been proposed as an alternative. However, there is no clear indication of where the Gospel of Mark was composed.

Although there is no clear evidence of the origin of this gospel, so it is how it is his story and its narrative, apparently has its geographical origins somewhere in the ancient Roman Empire, it is also seen that it can be of origin Greek, however in my opinion this does not have as much relevance as the events that in this book are narrated about the life of the teacher.
