'''Mark''', also known as John Mark,<ref>Acts 12:12</ref> was the author of the second Gospel, the [[Gospel of Mark]]. Though placed second in the [[New Testament]] due to its incompleteness,<ref>The original Gospel of Mark lacks any account of Jesus's background or the [[Resurrection]], neither of which the non-Apostle Mark would have known anything about.</ref> the Gospel of Mark was probably the first Gospel written, perhaps without initial authorization by the [[Apostles]]. Written in [[Greek]] for a [[Christian]] audience, Mark’s Gospel is a mixture of theology and history. It is written in a simple, forceful style. As a young boy, Mark was almost certainly an eyewitness to the arrest of [[Jesus]], as described in Mark 14:51-52.
