Mark

Worth knowing

John Mark, whose mother's house in Jerusalem was a meeting place for the first believers (Acts 12:12). He travelled with Paul and Barnabas and later worked with Peter.
Papias, around A.D. 110, says Mark was Peter's interpreter and wrote down carefully what Peter remembered of the things Jesus said and did.
His is the shortest Gospel, and many think it was the first one written.
