At what stage of Jesus' life does Mark's Gospel begin?
Mark begins with an account of Jesus' baptism.
Where was Jesus when he went to heaven?
The Long Ending* of Mark's Gospel says that Jesus met the disciples at a meal in Jerusalem and, after talking to them, ascended to heaven.Luke's Gospel says that Jesus led the disciples out on the road to to Bethany, where he ascended bodily to heaven, the same evening as his resurrection.Acts of the Apostles, although by the same author as Luke's Gospel, says that Jesus appeared on earth for forty days, providing many proofs that he was risen. He then told the disciples not to leave Jerusalem, and ascended bodily to heaven. This would appear to have been in a room in Jerusalem.Footnote*The Long Ending does not exist in the earliest manuscripts of Mark's Gospel, but was added much later, to more or less harmonise Mark with Matthew and Luke. There was also, at one stage, a "Short Ending".

Why did Jesus appear first to two lesser-known disciples?
A:In Luke's Gospel, the risen Jesus first appeared to "two of them", one of whom was an otherwise unknown Cleopas, on the road to Emmaeus. However, in Matthew's Gospel, Jesus first appeared to the women as they returned from the tomb and later to the eleven in a mountain in Galilee - with no reference to the two on the road to Emmaeus. In John's Gospel, Jesus first appeared to Mary Magdalene, but she thought he was the gardener; he appeared to ten of the disciples that night at a meal, again with no mention of the two on the road to Emmaeus. Mark's Gospel is an interesting case, as it originally ended at verse 16:8, with no appearances of the risen Jesus. When the 'Long Ending' was selected much later to complete Mark's Gospel (there was also at one stage a 'Short Ending' and other less well-known endings) it managed to harmonise with Luke's Gospel by having Jesus appear to two of them, but also with Matthew's Gospel because there were two women returning from the tomb.It is therefore in Luke's Gospel, alone among the New Testament gospels, that Jesus first appeared to two less well known disciples. Whether or not we believe the author was really Luke the physician, he was not present at these events but presents his account as historically true, no less so than the alternative accounts. We can only speculate, but it is possible that the author saw this appearance as better authenticating the reality of Jesus' resurrection.
How many times did Jesus appear after his crucifixion?
The story of Jesus appearing to others after his crucifixion and resurrection differs from source to source:Mark's GospelMark's Gospel was the earliest written record and should therefore be the most accurate account. However, in its original form, it finished at verse 16:8, when the young man told the women that Jesus was risen, and they fled in terror telling no one. Jesus did not appear to anyone after his crucifixion and resurrection.The 'Long Ending' (there was also, at one stage, a 'Short Ending') was added much later to add the necessary resurrection appearances. Here Jesus appeared first to Mary Magdalene, then to "the two of them on the road" (either the two women of Matthew or the two men of Luke), then to the eleven as they sat at a meal - a total of three times.Matthew's GospelMatthew's Gospel says that Jesus appeared only once, to the eleven disciples at a mountain in Galilee, where he gave a parting speech. In this gospel there was no appearance in Jerusalem, so Jesus only appeared once, in Galilee.Luke's GospelLuke's Gospel says that Jesus appeared to the two men on the road to Emmaeus, then to the eleven at a meal in the upper room in Jerusalem, after which he led them out towards Bethany, where he was taken up bodily to heaven. In this gospel, Jesus appeared two times. There could be no further appearances, because he ascended to heaven on the same day as his resurrection.John's GospelJohn's Gospel says that Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene, then to ten disciples in an upper room, then eight days later to all eleven disciples in the same room, then to the disciples by the Sea of Galilee. In this gospel, Jesus appeared four times.Acts of the ApostlesActs of the Apostles, by the same author as Luke's Gospel, but written a little later, says that the risen Jesus was on earth for forty days and was seen by many.
Did Jesus affirm he was the messiah in his trial with Caiaphas?
A:The story of Jesus' trial before Caiaphas evolved a little, as it was passed from Mark's Gospel, where it was first written, to Matthew and Luke, then finally to John.In Mark's Gospel, only outsiders call Jesus the Son of God, and Jesus never refers to himself as the Messiah or Christ until the trial, otherwise calling himself the Son of Man. When Peter calls him the Christ (Mark 8:29), Jesus charged that they tell no one of this. Clearly the reader was intended to know that Jesus was the Christ, without the gospel being cast as blasphemous at this early stage in Christian history. At his trial, the high priest challenges Jesus as to whether is is the Messiah, to which Jesus says, "I am," after which he appears to digress and speak of the Son of Man. Jesus has affirmed that he was the Messiah.The Gospels of Matthew and Luke based their accounts of the trial on this passage in Mark, but neither has Jesus say, "I am," so possibly this was not present in the very early copies of Mark they had, with his only answer being about the Son of Man. This would be consistent with Mark's caution not to offend the Jews at this earlier stage in Christian history.In Matthew's Gospel, when Caiaphas asks that Jesus tell whether he is the Christ (Messiah), the Son of God, Jesus merely says, "Thou hast said," then speaks of the Son of Man. He has left it to the high priest to reach his own conclusion.In Luke's Gospel, Jesus' reply is, "If I tell you, you will not believe," and then he speaks of the Son of Man.The author of John's Gospel realised that the Sanhedrin would never try a man on a criminal charge during the hours of darkness, so instead of a formal trial, Jesus is simply taken to the houses of Annas and the Caiaphas. In this account, Caiaphas does not ask Jesus whether he is the Messiah, but instead asks Jesus to explain his doctrine and Jesus' answer makes it clear to the reader that Jesus was entirely innocent of any offence against Judaism. Jesus is not given the opportunity to assert that he is the Messiah, and does not do so.
