→Gospel of Mark: Some versions do not translate the word as "Scriptures", but as "prophecies" or "holy writings" or even as "Tanakh"
*{{bibleref|Mark|14|49|version=ESV}} Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. But let the Scriptures be fulfilled.”
*{{bibleref|Mark|14|49|version=ESV}} Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. But let the Scriptures be fulfilled.”
A forgery at {{bibleref|Mark|15|28}} was inserted into the [[Gospel of Mark]] to try to bolster its very few number of references to [[Scriptures]]; nearly all modern English translations completely omit verse 28 or include it only in brackets:

“And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors,” ([[KJV]]).
“And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors,” ([[KJV]]).
=== Analysis ===
Of the three authentic references above, the first two are expressly presented as responses by [[Jesus]] to his opponents, who would pretend to rely on Scriptures. That is the same as hoisting someone on his own petard, as [[Shakespeare]] famously said.
That leaves Mark 12:24 as the only outright embrace of a fulfillment of Scriptures. This merits further analysis. Some versions do not translate the word as "Scriptures", but as "prophecies" or "holy writings" or even as "Tanakh".<ref>https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Mark%2014:49</ref>
