Why did Paul ask Timothy to bring Mark to him?
A:2 Timothy 4:11: "Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry."Almost all scholars are in agreement that the Second Epistle to Timothy is a pseudepigraphical letter written during the second century and merely using Paul's name to gain acceptance of the epistle's message. A typical method that ancient forgers used to satisfy readers that a writing was genuine, was to include personal details, in this case including the mention of Mark. As with any pseudepigraphical work, we can not assume that the intended audience really was the person to whom the letter appears to be written, and in this case the letter was really written to all Christians to introduce new doctrines about the roles of bishops and similar matters.
Who was not in the inner circle of leaders of the christian community in Jerusalem after the death of Jesus according to the new testament?
According to the New Testament, Paul was not part of the inner circle of leaders of the Christian community in Jerusalem after the death of Jesus. He was a later convert to Christianity and had his own ministry.
When and at what age did Mark begin his ministry?
This is impossible to say as nowhere does the Bible indicate his age. However, there are some clues. The life expectation in those days was only around 45 years of age, and so he would have been younger than this. There are some indications that Mark was the 'young man' who fled naked at Jesus' arrest (Mark 14: 51). Also he was most probably the 'young man' who led the disciples to the Upper Room for the Last Supper by carrying a pitcher of water (an unusual sight - this was normally women's work) (Mark 14: 13). The first reference is the only time that this particular man is mentioned in any of the Gospels and suggests that it is Mark mentioning his own part in the arrest. The second reference also occurs in Luke's account - one of the passages that Luke used from Mark's gospel. A John Mark is mentioned much later in Paul's accounts who is probably one and the same person. He survived many years after Jesus - long enough to write his account during the first persecution of Christians a few decades later. Therefore Mark must have been quite young at the time of Jesus' ministry. He was almost certainly one of the 72 who followed Jesus (outside the 12 disciples) . Jewish boys were regarded as adult at their Bahmizvahs at the age of 14. If Mark was described as a 'young man' he would have been somewhere between the age of 15 - 22 or so at the time of Jesus' ministry if all the parts of the jigsaw are to fit these facts.
What future follower of Jesus stood by watching the stoning of the Church's first martyr Stephen?
