The Fulfillment of Scriptures is a concept repeated in three of the Gospels, but only once in the Gospel of Mark.
The fulfillment of Scriptures is a concept of little or no interest to the Gentiles, such as the early Greek converts to Christianity. Mark's lack of interest in the concept probably reflects his own Roman background.
Gospel of Mark
The Gospel of Mark mentions Scriptures only 3 times:
- Mark 12:10 (ESV) Have you not read this Scripture: “‘The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;
- Mark 12:24 Jesus said to them, “Is this not the reason you are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God?
- Mark 14:49 Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. But let the Scriptures be fulfilled.”
