Was psalms mainly written by Jesus?

The Psalms were written before Jesus appeared as a man on earth.Further info:There are 150 Psalms (songs)which were written, primarily, by King David (who wrote atleast 73 of them), the 'Sons of Korah' wrote 11 of them, Asaph 12, Moses 1, Solomon 1, Ethan the Ezrahite 1, and around 40 more with no specific writer listed. Though the book of Psalms was completed nearly 500 years before Jesus was on earth, many of the Psalms were ABOUT him...prophetic words concerning the coming Messiah such as can be found at (Psalm 22/Mark 15:34) and (Psalm 16/Acts 2:31).

Who was Mark written for?

The Gospel of Mark was likely written for a predominantly Gentile audience, possibly in Rome. Its portrayal of Jesus emphasizes his actions and deeds more than his Jewish heritage, making it accessible to non-Jewish readers.


Which two gospels were not written by one of Jesus' disciples?

A:All four New Testament gospels were originally anonymous and only attributed to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John later in the second century. The gospel now known as John's Gospel was actually attributed to Cyrenthus before finally being attributes to John. The attributions to Matthew, Mark, Luke and Johnmean that Matthew and John were then considered to be witten by Jesus' disciples, while Mark and Luke were not.Modern New Testament scholars say that there is no good reason to accept the traditional attributions, and that none of the gospels could have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed. On this evidence, all the New Testament gospels were written by people who were not disciples.


Was Mark's Gospel written in Rome?

Mark's Gospel is traditionally said to have been written in Rome, and that is indeed possible. However, it is more likely that if Mark was written in Rome, it would have been written in Latin, a language which the author seems to have known. There seems little point in writing in a language that many Romans would not have understood.As Mark was written in Greek Koine, it was more likely written somewhere in the eastern empire, where this was the language spoken. On this evidence, it was not written in the Jewish communities of Palestine, where Aramaic would have been the language of choice.

Did Peter write Mark's Gospel?

A:The Gospel of Mark was originally anonymous, so we can not really say who wrote it, in spite of the second-century attribution to Mark. Nevertheless, New Testament scholars say that the gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed, which means Peter certainly could not have written it. In any case, by about 70 CE, when Mark was written, Peter was most unlikely to have still been alive.

Which evangelical book in the New Testament was written in sequence as events happened?

A:This term usually applies to the four New Testament gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. At least one of these is assumed to have been written in the same sequence as the events occurred. We now know that the Gospels of Matthew and Luke were substantially based on Mark's Gospel, so therefore their sequence is also based on Mark's Gospel. Scholars have also established that John's Gospel was loosely based on Luke, with some material taken directly from Mark. Although John differs from Luke in some respects, such as the timing of the Cleansing of the Temple, this is for literary and theological reasons, as the author of John was after all relying on his sources for information about Jesus.This means that Mark was the only evangelical book in the New Testament that could have been written in the same sequence as events occurred - the other books were dependent, directly (Matthew, Luke) or indirectly (John), on Mark. Whether Mark's Gospel was really written in the same sequence as events occurred remains a matter for debate. There is good evidence this gospel reports events in a sequence that enabled the author to develop parallel and chiastic structures, and create a literary masterpiece.
