The Gospel of Mark is generally accepted as being the first Gospel written. There is also a possibility that Matthew wrote an Aramaic version of his Gospel prior to the Greek version.

Why is Mark's Gospel said to have been written first?

A:The generally accepted date for authorship of Mark's Gospel is approximately the year 70 - between 68 and 73 CE. When Matthew and Luke are viewed in parallel with Mark and seen synoptically ('with the same eye') in the original Greek language, it can be demonstrated that one gospel must have been the original from which the other two were copied. It can then be established conclusively that this original is Mark and that the other two synoptic gospels were largely based on it. Therefore Mark was the earliest synoptic gospel. .John's Gospel was loosely based on Luke's Gospel, with some material taken direct from Mark. It is therefore, of course, also later than Mark.

Which one of the four New Testament Gospels according to Matthew Mark Luke and John is considered by biblical scholars to be the first one written?

Biblical scholars say that the first gospel to be written was the Gospel of Mark. The clear evidence of this is that the authors of both Matthew and Luke copied much of Mark's Gospel verbatim in the Greek language. They say that analysis shows that Mark is not copied from either Matthew or Luke, and that the author of Luke was not aware of Matthew's Gospel. Thus, Mark must have been written before Matthew and Luke. John's Gospel is believed to have been inspired by Luke's Gospel, with some material taken direct from Mark.
