→Mark's Dates: reply
I took a Milton course last year and just finished the book "The Origin of Satan" by Elaine Pagels and it seems that many biblical scholars and historians believe the author of Mark was writing sometimes around the revolt of 66CE. Has anybody else encountered this idea? I find it rather compelling and was curious whether or not a more distinct section on "Authorship" or "Possible Historical Context" should be added. --[[User:Sardonac|Sardonac]]
