Author Description

Is Mark A Roman Gospel? is a book written by Benjamin Wisner Bacon in 1919. The book explores the origins and authorship of the Gospel of Mark, one of the four canonical gospels of the New Testament. Bacon argues that the Gospel of Mark was written in Rome and that it reflects the influence of Roman culture and politics. He examines the language, style, and content of the gospel, as well as its historical and cultural context, to support his thesis. Bacon also discusses the authorship of the gospel, proposing that it was written by a disciple of Peter who was based in Rome. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the Gospel of Mark and its relationship to the Roman world, making it a valuable resource for scholars and students of biblical studies and early Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
