What is the term to refer to Mark who wrote the Gospel?

What does Matthew call himself in his gospel?
A:All four New Testament gospels were written anonymously and were not attributed by the Church Fathers to supposed authors until later in the second century. The gospel now known as Matthew's Gospel was attributed to the disciple Matthew because this gospel emphasises the role of Matthew more than any other gospel. This does not mean that the author actually was Matthew, and modern New Testament scholars say that the gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed, but tradition ever since the second century links the gospel with Matthew.

Was John's Gospel written before Revelation?
It is thought that Revelation was written no later than the 90s of the first century, so it would be earlier than John's Gospel, which was written in the early second century. However, the author of Revelation, now known as John of Patmos, is regarded as a different person than the author of John.
Who is the only author who wrote both a Gospel and epistles?
We do not know the name of the author of the gospel now known as John's Gospel, since it was written anonymously and only attributed to the disciple John later in the second century. some believe the author of John's Gospel was also the author of the Epistle of John; certainly the Epistle of John came out of the same community as John's Gospel.

Who wrote 1 John and what was his occupation?
A:It is traditional to believe that 1 John was written by the author of John's Gospel, so the first thing to recognise is that both 1 John and John's Gospel were originally anonymous and only attributed to the disciple John later in the second century. Scholars say that the Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events it portrays, thus ruling out John or any other disciple as its author. In fact, a careful analysis of John's Gospel shows that it was actually inspired by Luke's Gospel. 1 John and John's Gospel were certainly written in the same community, known today as the Johannine community because of the traditional association with John, and 1 John shows evidence of a split in the community.Some scholars say that 1 John was written in 3 stratas and by various authors. Whether 1 John had a single author, a team of authors or was written over time, with the last stage being completed early in the second century, we do not know who the author or authors were. We therefore can never say what occupation the author had.

A:The author of the gospel now known as John's Gospel is not actually known. The Gospel was originally anonymous and was only attributed to John, son of Zebedee, later in the second century.

If John had really been the author of the gospel that now bears his name, then his father would have been Zebedee and his brother would have been James.

A:The second gospel is generally attributed to Mark, the young companion of the apostle Paul, and in later tradition associated as a relation of St. Peter. However, the Gospel was actually anonymous until the second century, when the early Church Fathers sought to establish who probably wrote each of the gospels that we now have.
