Talk:Mark
From Academic Kids
Hi; the reason I removed the comment that Mark was acting as a scribe for Peter was that I felt this was too much information for the disambiguation page. It's covered in the article. Feel free to disagree and revert.
Also, I put "Gospel of Mark" in the list with everything else, which is the way "Gospel of Matthew|Luke|John" is handled on the relevant disambiguation pages. Yes, I'm obsessive-compulsive about consistency. :)

True or false??
True or false: the link to User:Mark does not belong in this dis-ambiguation page. 66.245.73.148 02:19, 11 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- This is more a relic from a long time ago when user pages did not have their own namespace, and user pages were in the main article namespace. If you find this improper, feel free to remove it. - Mark 01:58, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC) (EDIT: Whoops, it would seem I am wrong, and only placed it there a few months ago. Mark Ryan is the one which is the relic. I am removing this link now. - Mark 02:00, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC))
Gospel Title: "according to"
The Greek – in the case of all four Gospel accounts – has kata, Latin secondo, both meaning according to. In other words [The] Good News according to .... There is a lively discussion as to the genre of the Gospels, hence their precise title, while not original but very early all the same, may be considered significant. (It is easy to see, why one often encounters of, even in scholarly writings ... it is 9 characters and 1 space shorter, and rolls better off the tongue.)
