| | Our Patron Saint |
| | Mark's Gospel is written in awkward Greek, full of Semitic turns of phrases, cumbersome participles, and a lack of transitions. | | | Traditionally, it is explained that the winged lion is chosen for Mark because his gospel speaks of the royal dignity of Christ, and because he begins his account of Saint John the Baptist with the "voice crying is the desert" (Appleton). | | | When Saint Peter escaped from prison, he came "to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying," and it was a maid of the house, called Rhoda, who answered the door. |

| | USCCB - NAB - Mark - Introduction |
| | The key verses at Mark 1:14-15, which are programmatic, summarize what Jesus proclaims as gospel: fulfillment, the nearness of the kingdom, and therefore the need for repentance and for faith. | | | Mark thus shares with Paul, as well as with other parts of the New Testament, an emphasis on election (Mark 13:20, 22) and upon the gospel as Christ and his cross (cf 1 Cor 1:23). | | | Jesus is the Son of God (Mark 1:11; 9:7; 15:39; cf Mark 1:1; 14:61). |
