MARK 1:8

13 of 45

And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

MARK 1:9

14 of 45

And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

MARK 1:10

15 of 45

And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

MARK 1:11

16 of 45

And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.

MARK 1:12

17 of 45

And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

MARK 1:14

19 of 45

And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

MARK 1:15

20 of 45

Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

25 of 45

And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.

And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.

MARK 1:22

27 of 45

And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

MARK 1:23

28 of 45

Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.

MARK 1:24

29 of 45

And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

MARK 1:25

30 of 45

And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.

MARK 1:26

31 of 45

And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

MARK 1:27

32 of 45

And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.

MARK 1:28

MARK 1:39

MARK 1:40

45 of 45

And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

MARK 1:41

46 of 45

And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

MARK 1:42

47 of 45

And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;

MARK 1:43

48 of 45

And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

MARK 1:44

49 of 45

But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

BIBLE CANON: 5

A biblical canon is a set of texts (or "books") which a particular religious community regards as authoritative scripture. Christians were the first to use the term in reference to scripture.

These bible canons have developed through debate and agreement by the religious authorities.

W Biblical_canon

1. Marcion Canon | BIBLE CANON 140 AD
Marcionism was a religious movement based on the teachings of the 2nd-century Marcion of Sinope. Marcions Canon lists 14 books out of the 27 books in the New Testament. More specifically, these were Luke and Paul's 13 writings. Marcion even rejected the entire Old Testament of 39 books.

W Marcion_of_Sinope

Mark was REJECTED (0%) by Marcion Canon
(No mention; no quotes; opinion unknown)

2. Muratorian Canon | BIBLE CANON 170 AD
The Muratorian Canon is an ancient list of New Testament books - the oldest such list we have found and lists 22 of the 27 books that were later included in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.

It is noteworthy that the Muratorian Canon omits several epistles that later did win acceptance in the Christian New Testament such as the books of James and 2 Peter.

4. Cheltenham/ Mommsen List | BIBLE CANON 360 AD
The Cheltenham or Mommsen List is a Latin manuscript discovered by the German classical scholar Theodor Mommsen (published 1886) which probably originated in North Africa in the 4th century.

It has 24-book Old Testament and 24-book New Testament which omits Jude and James, and perhaps Hebrews, and questions the epistles of John and Peter.

5. Council of Rome | BIBLE CANON 382 AD
The Council of Rome was a meeting of Catholic Church officials and theologians which took place in 382 under the authority of Pope Damasus I, bishop of Rome.

According to a document appended to some manuscripts, the Council of Rome affirmed the authority of the Old and New Testament canon in a decretal or damasine list.

Mark 1
TEXTUAL CRITICISM

And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well

MARK 16:17

Mark 16:17 exists only in the "longer version" of Mark and was not part of the original gospel of Mark; it was added much later. This verse does not appear in the manuscript evidence in the first 300-years of the common era. The first Bible to include this verse was Codex Washingtonianus dated to the 5th century.

Therefore, 400-years after Jesus and the Bible was finalised, Christian scholars were 'inventing' entire verses and inserting them into the canon Bible.
