San Marcos Evangelista. According to church tradition, Mark, also called simply John Mark or John, is the author of a gospel and the interpreter who translated for Peter in his preaching against the Greek-speaking audiences. The son of a certain Mary, whose house in Jerusalem was open to the early Christian community. Cousin of Barnabas He was probably as priestly lineage. states on the one hand the tradition that Mark had never personally heard the preaching of the Lord, but then many have tried to discover in the boy who ran away naked in the Garden of Gethsemane, an episode that only the gospel attributed to him concerned. May have known the group of fans without being properly disciple.
At the beginning of the expansion of the gospel, Paul and Barnabas came to Antioch from Jerusalem, taking with them Marco, he accompanied them on their first missionary enterprises, Cyprus and Perge, from which he returned for unknown reasons.
Barnabas, willing to take Mark with them again when the apostle was planning his second trip, was opposed by Paul, who went alone. Marcos continued, then, once again Barnabas to Cyprus.
