What books of the Bible did Mark write?

Mark, who was mentioned by Paul in his epistles, is credited with writing the gospel that now bears his name. However, all the new Testament gospels were originally anonymous until attributed to the persons whose names they now bear, later in the second century.In fact, there is no good reason that Mark wrote any book in the Bible. He was probably already dead by the time Mark's Gospel was written, in 70 CE.

What proportion of the New Testament is written by John Mark?

Apart from the epistles of Paul, we do not really know who wrote any of the books of the New Testament - even the four New Testament gospels were originally anonymous. However, Eusebius, writing in the fourth century, says that Papias attributed a gospel to John Mark, early in the second century. The gospel Papias is said to have attributed to John Mark is probably the book now known as Mark's Gospel, a small proportion of the New Testament but hugely important as the basis for each of the other synoptic gospels, and indirectly for John's Gospel.
