MARK THE EVANGELIST
John Mark was a Jew and according to Paul's letter to the Colossians was cousin to Barnabas. He accompanied Barnabas and Paul on their first missionary journey. Afterwards he went to Cyprus with Barnabas and to Rome with first Paul and then Peter.

The Gospel which bears his name is generally regarded as the earliest and was most likely written whilst he was in Rome.

Mark's Gospel has a sharpness and immediacy about it and he does not spare the disciples in noting their weakness and lack of understanding that Jesus the Christ would suffer for the world's redemption.
