Answer
  1. The earliest of the New Testament gospels, now known as Mark's Gospel, did not include an account of the birth of Jesus. THese accounts were added by the authors of Matthew and Luke.
  2. The author of John knew Luke's account of the birth of Jesus, but did not include it in his gospel. In fact, he suggests that he did not even believe that Jesus was born in Bethlehem.

Where is the Gospel of Jesus...We have many gospels but no gospel of Jesus. Why?

Answer #1:Luke 19:10 - for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.Jesus came into the world for a specific purpose; to reveal God's plan for the reconciliation of mankind and offer Himself as the atoning sacrifice. His mission would not have been served had He spent His time writing a book about Himself; others could (and did) do just that. Answer #2:The true gospel IS the gospel of Jesus Christ. As far as anyone knows, Jesus was not a writer. He was someone who spoke and demonstrated, but never wrote. And the "gospels" we have in the Bible are more accurately known as "gospel accounts" -- such as "The Gospel [of Jesus Christ] According To Matthew (or Mark, or Luke, or John)." So strictly speaking, there is not a Gospel of Matthew, or a Gospel of John -- it's just easier to say "Matthew's Gospel" or "John's Gospel." But really, it's the Gospel of Jesus that each one of those Apostles wrote about.

What was the name of the city Jesus was born in?

Bethlehem "Many modern scholars question whether Jesus was really born in Bethlehem, and suggest that the different Gospel accounts were invented to present the birth of Jesus as fulfillment of prophecy and imply a connection to the lineage of King David.[18][19][20][21] The Gospel of Mark and the Gospel of John do not include a nativity narrative or any hint that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, and refer to him only as being from Nazareth."see link "Birthplace of Jesus" below..

What stories bookend the Passion predictions What could the Gospel writer be suggesting by bookending these predictions?

The stories that bookend the Passion predictions in the Gospel of Mark are the healings of blind Bartimaeus and blind Bartimaeus performed by Jesus. By placing these miracles before and after the predictions of Jesus' suffering and death, the Gospel writer may be suggesting that true insight and understanding comes from recognizing Jesus as the suffering servant who brings healing and salvation to humanity.
