How many miracles in the gospel of Mark chapter 1?

Answer 1

If you mean in English then the question is impossible to answer as this is only a translation from the original languages and there are many different English translations which will all have a different number of words.

Answer 2

A:One miracle that appears in all four New Testament gospels is the feeding of the five thousand. This originally appeared in Mark's Gospel, where is began a long sequence of miracles and discourses that included ten references or allusions to food, with a theme of the disciples not believing. Matthew's Gospel follows this sequence reasonable closely and includes the same miracles and discourses, but they are not to be found in Luke, because it was part of what is known as the 'Missing Block'. John's Gospel was loosely based on Luke, and so also includes the miracle of feeding the 5000, but not the following sequence of miracles.

The resurrection of Jesus is the last miracle, and is present in all four gospels. However, Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and the fled in terror, telling no one, and thus with no actual resurrection appearances.

A:

One miracle they all share in common is the feeding of the five thousand. Some common details they share are:

• about 5000 men were fed
• Jesus used 5 loaves and 2 fish to feed the multitude
• 12 baskets full were left over

Some theologians comment that because Matthew does not count women and children among the 5000 men fed, the total number fed was much higher when counting these women, children and other family members present.

Matthew

When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick. When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves." (Jesus) said to them, "There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves."But they said to him, "Five loaves and two fishare all we have here." Then he said, "Bring them here to me,"and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over --twelve wicker basketsfull. Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children. Mt 14:14-21 NAB

Mark

When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things. By now it was already late and his disciples approached him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already very late. Dismiss them so that they can go to the surrounding farms and villages and buy themselves something to eat." He said to them in reply, "Give them some food yourselves." But they said to him, "Are we to buy two hundred days' wages worth of food and give it to them to eat?" He asked them, "How many loaves do you have? Go and see." And when they had found out they said, "Five loaves and two fish." So he gave orders to have them sit down in groups on the green grass. The people took their places in rows by hundreds and by fifties. Then, taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to (his) disciples to set before the people; he also divided the two fish among them all. They all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up twelve wicker baskets full of fragments and what was left of the fish. Those who ate (of the loaves) were five thousand men. Mk 6:34-44 NAB

Luke

As the day was drawing to a close, the Twelve approached him and said, "Dismiss the crowd so that they can go to the surrounding villages and farms and find lodging and provisions; for we are in a deserted place here." He said to them, "Give them some food yourselves." They replied, "Five loaves and two fish are all we have, unless we ourselves go and buy food for all these people." Now the men there numbered about five thousand. Then he said to his disciples, "Have them sit down in groups of (about) fifty." They did so and made them all sit down. Then taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing over them, broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. They all ate and were satisfied. And when the leftover fragments were picked up, they filled twelve wicker baskets. Lk 9:12-17 NAB

John

After this, Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee (of Tiberias). A large crowd followed him, because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick. Jesus went up on the mountain, and there he sat down with his disciples. The Jewish feast of Passover was near. When Jesus raised his eyes and saw that a large crowd was coming to him, he said to Philip, "Where can we buy enough food for them to eat?" He said this to test him, because he himself knew what he was going to do. Philip answered him, "Two hundred days' wages worth of food would not be enough for each of them to have a little (bit)." One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him, "There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?" Jesus said, "Have the people recline." Now there was a great deal of grass in that place. So the men reclined, about five thousand in number. Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed them to those who were reclining, and also as much of the fish as they wanted. When they had had their fill, he said to his disciples, "Gather the fragments left over, so that nothing will be wasted." So they collected them, and filled twelve wicker baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves that had been more than they could eat. When the people saw the sign he had done, they said, "This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world." Since Jesus knew that they were going to come and carry him off to make him king, he withdrew again to the mountain alone. Jn 6:1-15 NAB

Answer 3

We're not able to accurately count the number of miracles as there are places in the New Testament where Jesus heals a large number of people (Matthew 4:24 and other places).

Not including these mass healing events, there are about 42 miracles described in detail in the New Testament. That's not including the miracles done in Jesus' name through the disciples mentioned in the book of Acts.
