Which gospel has a very short resurrection account?

Is The gospel of mark the first account of jesus' life and teachings to be written down?

Many think Mark's Gospel was written very early, possibly before all the others.

Do the gospel accounts contradict one another?

A:Yes. The gospel accounts do quite frequently contradict each others. Theologians try to harmonise these differences or, in other cases, explain them as the different recollections of different eyewitnesses. Yet scholars now realise that three of the New Testament gospels are based, directly or indirectly, on Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written. So, whenever the other gospels rely on material in Mark's Gospel, the differences are usually more nuanced rather than actual contradictions. Where Mark did not provide a clear guide, the different authors had to write their own stories, which therefore could contradict. From the very beginning of the life of Jesus, we find biblical contradiction. In the Gospel of Matthew, Bethlehem was the home town of Mary and Joseph, who fled from Bethlehem to Egypt for fear of King Herod, beginning to return to their home in Bethlehem after Herod's death but, being warned in a dream, turned aside and travelled to Nazareth instead. In Luke's Gospel, Nazareth was their home town and the family returned peacefully from Bethlehem to Nazareth just forty days afterthe birth of Jesus.Athe the very end of the gospel story, after the resurrection of Jesus, we find biblical contradiction. This occurs because Mark originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror telling no one. It also occurs because each subsequent author was not satisfield with Mark's simple account of a young man telling the women that Jesus was risen. Resurrection appearances were needed but, with no guidance from Mark, the authors of Matthew and Luke wrote quite different accounts. The account in John begins as an elaboration of Luke's account, on which it was based. Much later, the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was added to Mark, to provide it with resurrection appearances. The redactor of Mark's Long Ending was familiar with the other gospel accounts of the resurrection, and made a good effort to harmonise his account with parts of the other gospel accounts.

Did Our Lady see the risen Jesus?

In the original gospel account of the Resurrection, that of Mark's Gospel, no one appears to have seen the risen Jesus, because the gospel originally ended at verse 16:8 when the young man tol the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. In the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) subsequently added to Mark's Gospel, Jesus appeared later to Mary Magdalene and then to "two of them as they walked" and finally to the disciples in the upper room, where he made some final, parting remarks. In the Long Ending, the two walking could be either the two women of Matthew's Gospel or the two men of Luke's Gospel. Unless Mary, mother of Christ, was one of the two, she never saw the risen Jesus. In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene and the other Mary as they returned from the tomb. The gospel does not say who the 'other Mary' was, but it could have been Our Lady. In Luke's Gospel, appeared only to the two men on the road to Emmaeus and then the disciples. Since he was taken bodily up into heaven on the very evening of his resurrection, Mary would not have seen Jesus. In John's Gospel, Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene and the disciples only. In Acts of the Apostles, by the same author as Luke's Gospel but written somewhat later, Jesus remained on earth of forty days after his resurrection and was seen by many. It is most probable that Mary would have seen him.

Which gospels discuss's the resurrection the most?

No gospel actually 'discusses' the resurrection, but all four gospels set out the account of the resurrection in their own way, depending upon their author's situation and background. Mark's gospel is the most scant with just 8 verses describing the empty tomb. The most likely reason for this is that the ending of Mark's gospel has been lost, and there are a few possible 'endings', some of which were possibly written much later and less verifiable. This was perfectly possible when the gospel was originally written - as they all once were - on a scroll, the last section (on the outside of the scroll) having been worn away or damaged. Luke gives his last chapter over to the Resurrection - all 53 verses of it. Also only in Luke do we read of the appearance of Jesus to two travellers on the Road to Emmaus. This is quite apt as Luke's gospel was systematically put together by him from other eyewitness accounts rather than his own (as he never met Jesus) and so it would be more likely in Luke's gospel that other accounts would be included which would be omitted if the account was written, as in the case of Matthew and John, from a personal perspective. Matthew also gives the whole of his last chapter over to the resurrection, but in this case there are only 20 verses. Here we learn more about the guards who guarded the tomb - set there by the Roman governor in cahoots with the Jewish authorities. Again, this would have interested Matthew, being a tax collector before he was a disciple - and who had had close dealings with both the Romans and the Jewish authorities. Matthew also gives a very brief account of the ascension - just a verse or so - but this is elaborated on in Luke's second book -The Acts of the Apostles - which comes in the New Testament immediately after the gospels. The most detailed account of the resurrection comes in John's gospel where he dedicates the last two chapters 20 and 21 (30 and 25 verses respectively) to the resurrection. This is what one might expect as John, along with Peter was the first disciple who saw the empty tomb for himself on the day of resurrection and as a young eyewitness would have had the best recollection of what had happpened. Mary Magdalene, of course, was the first person to see the risen Christ but did not write an account of the events as in those days most women were illiterate as formal female education was not in the culture of Jewish society of those times. The so-called 'Gospel of Mary Magdalene' is almost certainly a fictional account written many hundreds of years later simply because the greatest event in Mary's life - seeing her resurrected Lord - is never mentioned - something that would be unthinkable if one was writing the events down. In the gospel of John we also have appearances of Jesus after the resurrectiion including the appearance to Thomas with the other disciples, and the appearance at Lake Tiberias where John, his brother James and some other disciples were fishing. We also hear of Jesus' commissioning of Peter to be the disciples' leader in John's presence, and Jesus's hint that John would be one of the few disciples who would not die as a martyr - a prophesy that came true. In John's Gospel, then, we have the account of an eyewitness, the only disciple who stood by Jesus throughout his trial and execution, all the others having fled, and who was so convinced by the events that had happened that he wrote them in detail, so that, as he put it, 'you too may believe'.

How is the account of Jesus on the Road to Emmaus different from the other gospel accounts?

A:The story of the risen Jesus meeting the two disciples on the road to Emmaus comes from Luke's Gospel (Luke 24:13-31). It is the only account in which Jesus simply disappears from sight, as the disciples talk to him. The author of John's Gospel usually took care not to directly contradict Luke, although he aften changed or added to his source gospel. Although John does not contain the account on the road to Emmaus, it could be added to this gospel without affecting its structure or integrity, except that John 21:14 says that the appearace to the disciples at the Sea of Galilee was only the third time he had appeared to the disciples but would have to be the fourth if there was an appearance on the road to Emmaus.Matthew's Gospel has a very different account of the resurrection appearances, with Jesus appearing only to the women and then to the disciples in a mountain in Galilee. The story of the appearance on the road to Emmaus is inconsistent with this gospel account.Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. This, the first gospel, originally had no appearances of the risen Jesus. The 'Long Ending' (Mark 16:9-20) was added much later and includes (Mark 16:12-13): "After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country. And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them." This is a good addition, as it could equally be interpreted as Jesus appearing to the two women of Matthew's Gospel or to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, in luke's Gospel.

What time is believe that Mary Magdalene saw Jesus' resurrection?

The Gospel of John tells us that Mary Magdalene came to the tomb on Sunday morning while it was still dark and Jesus had already risen. The Gospel of Luke tells us that it was on the first day of the week (Sunday) very early in the morning, and Jesus had already risen The Gospel of Matthew tells us as the first day of the week (Sunday) began to dawn Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and Jesus had already risen. The Gospel of Mark tells us that, Very early in the morning, they (Mary and others) came to the tomb when the sun had risen. The resurrection had already taken place. Mary Magdalene did not see Jesus resurrect, but very early on Sunday morning went to the tomb and Jesus had already resurrected. We have no Idea what time Jesus arose, but it was before sunrise.

Very few will ever live the complete gospel values, for all fall short of the glory of God. Every person can only do the best they can with what they have. We have been given gospel principles to help us, but Satan has a way of finding those little chinks in our armour which we leave unprotected.

How many endings are in Mark's Gospel?

A:Mark's Gospel, in its original form, ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they told no one. The earliest known manuscripts do not contain any material about the risen Jesus, and this is confirmed by the framework structure of Mark. This is a parallel structure - a literary sequence in which an opening set of events is contrasted with another, parallel set of events that mirrors the first. Mark has a very sophisticated parallel structure which the present 'Long Ending' breaks.Verses 16:9-25 of the modern Gospel form what is now known as the 'Long Ending and were added to the Gospel at a much later stage, to provide resurrection appearances and to more or less harmonise it with the Gospels of Matthew and Luke.There was also, at one stage, a 'Short Ending' which can be found in several early manuscripts.It seems that there was also an intermediate ending that combined material from the Short Ending with concepts found in the Long Ending.

How did Jesus' ministry continue after his death and Resurrection?

They preached the Gospel message: that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for the sins of the world and rose again on the third day, and whoever believed in him would have eternal life. That was the main thing they did: preach. But they also healed the sick and other acts in Jesus' name. the book of Acts in the bible gives a very detailed account of this time period.
