An early church tradition, deriving from Papias of Hierapolis (c.60–c.130 AD),[6] regards the Gospel as based on the preaching of Saint Peter, and written down by John Mark, who is named in the Acts of the Apostles as a companion of Saint Peter.[7][8][9] Most critical scholars reject this tradition, and it is generally agreed that it was written anonymously for a gentile audience, probably in Rome, sometime shortly before or after the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD.[10][b] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel_of_Mark As for me, I don;t knoe and I don't care who wrote it. I evaluate it on it's own standing, as I do on most everything. -- C'est bon Soloman
