We do not know the real name of the author of Mark's Gospel, but because the second-century Church Fathers attributed the Gospel to the apostle Mark, we continue to refer to the author as Mark the evangelist.
AnswerIn his epistles, Paul had often referred to the gospel, or "good news", that he preached. Later, when the book now known as Mark was written, the term gospel was adopted for the new genre that it became: thus Mark's Gospel. There are dozens of books in the 'gospel' genre, but only four were selected for inclusion in the New Testament.

The term Gospel means "Good News"
to what does the term coed refer
Mark accompanied Paul and Barnabus on a missionary journey, and Paul referred to him later his life as being a servant of God and well respected. He also wrote the second book of the Gospels. His mother was a Christian and his father a Greek. He is also the one who ran away naked when Christ was arrested.
Another answer from our community:'Synoptic' means "presenting or taking the same point of view". However, this description goes only part way to describing these three gospels. It is widely accepted by scholars that Mark's gospel is most likely the earliest. In addition, Luke's gospel and Matthew's gospel contain almost the whole of Mark's account, and must therefore, scholars believe, have been written later than Mark's gospel and based on Mark's gospel. In addition to Mark's account, both Luke and Matthew contain another group of verses that are similar, but not present in Mark, which are believed to have been obtained from a now lost source called 'Q' ('Quelle' = who?). Where Luke and Matthew differ is therefore likely to be a significant amount of original material added by Luke and Matthew themselves. However, despite these differences, there is sufficient material in these three gospels that is similar, or identical, to warrant the theory that they were all based, at least in part, on a single document, the gospel of Mark. Hence the term 'synoptic' Note the contrast with the gospel of John where there is very little material common with the other three, and the style is very personal, suggesting strongly that this gospel was written totally independently of the others.
"Gospel" means "The good news"

A "CrossRoads minicourse" describes Three Stages of Gospel Development as:The ministry of JesusPostresurrectional preaching of the apostlesThe Writing of the Gospels by the EvangelistsThe minicourse says 'The Evangelists didn’t write the Gospels to give us “histories,” as we use the term. They wrote so readers would “come to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God” (John 20:31)'. In other words, the gospels may not always be based on actual events or sayings of Jesus, but at least they were written to convince their audiences.A popular view, at least in the twentieth century, was that the gospels were finally written down because those who had experienced the message of Jesus were becoming old and it was feared that the stories would be lost unless they were written down soon. This implies that the Evangelists wrote the gospels as accurate "histories", as we understand the term - a view that would be in direct contradiction to the statement above.The gospels were originally anonymous and were actually written much later than formerly believed. The first New Testament gospel to be written was Mark's Gospel, now believed to have been written approximately 70 CE. We know the other gospels were written much later, because the Gospels of Matthew and Luke were substantially based on Mark and the Gospel of John appears to have been loosely based on material from both Mark and Luke.Thus, Matthew, Luke and John could not have been written until Mark had been written and was circulating in Christian communities. Mark's Gospel appears to have been influenced by Paul's epistles, so this gospel could not have been written until after the time of Paul. This places us in the final stage of gospel formation.
