Mark: An Eyewitness Account
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ค. 2024
- The Gospel of Mark is believed to be too late to be a reliable account of Jesus. However, the evidence suggests the opposite is true. Mark likely wrote his account by utilizing eyewitness testimony. His Gospel is a reliable account of Jesus. A special thanks to Stephen Boyce and Luuk ven de Weghe for helping with this video.

Wow, thank you!
@InspiringPhilosophy Hey, Michael! You should do a video about whether or not verses 9-20 should be included in Mark 16, and whether or not they are accurate, and written by Mark. All sorts of Bibles now are counting those verses out, either bracketing them, or discluding them from the text. And when those verses are removed, there are no post-resurrection appearances of Jesus recorded in the gospel.
The fact that as new evidences pop up we are always moving towards closer the conclusions of Christian orthodoxy is very satisfying
What do you mean? What exactly do you believe Christian orthodoxy is?
@@Theonly_OnyxI think it is pretty clear what he means, standard traditional Christianity

Let's hope that IP's videos directly cause or at least contribute to you reconsidering your atheism.
@adamstewart9052 I am not against religion but if you say you're one religion, someone else will say you're wrong and going to hell.
That's why I enjoy studying all the abrahamic religions on my own, to understand them.
And inspiring philosophy does a good job presenting the apologist viewpoint
@@RDR12344 You can say 1+1=2, and someone will say that’s wrong. That someone disagrees is not evidence. Truth is not defined by those who discern or reject it.
A friendly warning: You can send a criminal to capital punishment based on evidence “beyond reasonable doubt,” which does not require absence of doubt. You can impose ruinous, crippling debt on someone based on “preponderance of evidence,” which means their opponent just needs slightly better evidence. Both are examples of faith (before it was misdefined by pop atheists). Faith does not require absolute proof; it means trusting the explanation of the evidence that has the most explanatory power. Don’t fall into “analysis paralysis.”

Hey IP. Just wanted to let you know I’ve been watching your videos for 2 years now and it’s been instrumental in the development of my faith. No other channel has gone this far in depth to explain Christian history and theology. God bless you man
As always Michael, thank you! Without Christianity the world would be a much poorer place, in every way.
How could you even know that?
@@alp5088 History. Literacy for the masses didn't come from Islam, or secular government, or by random chance. Following the Protestant Reformation Christians wanted people to be able to read the bible. So suddenly instead of a small elite who could read suddenly there were millions. That alone propelled us into the modern world. Human rights, dignity and equality were Christian taught values unknown in the Roman world they emerged out of.

I was literally just having a struggle about this! I was on the USCCB website and they said it’s unlikely that Mark actually wrote Mark which gave me a shock. Thank you for this!
Bruh. Really? Critical scholarship in the USCCB? I knew that the Roman Catholic Church had some problems with theological liberalism, but I didn't know that it was that deep.
@@catfinity8799 yeah I was stunned when I read it. I’m hoping and guessing that they had a scholar rather than a bishop write the section I read. But either way I don’t know why that’s on the site
@@od8401 Yeah, they're going against their own church's dogma, probably falling under an anathema. I hope for the Roman Church's sake it was just some scholar, and not a bishop.
@@catfinity8799 ...Actually is the authorship a dogma of the Roman Church? I've found some things I thought were dogmatic are merely stances.
@od8401 Why would anyone make him up as an author? This is pre-printing-press days, when writing took a lot of effort to distribute. If you were going to make up an author, you wouldn't use some obscure name mentioned once in a letter. You'd attribute it to an Apostle or someone else who is high up but difficult to check... like the Apocalype of Peter did, or the Infancy Gospel of James.
The same people who claim to want nothing but the truth trying to attack the Gospels despite all the evidence supporting they are true eyewitness accounts. It’s very telling what their goal actually is. Amazing video.
Stop making the same mistake over and over again.
"Eyewitness account: a description given by someone who was present at an event."
When the same people who demand empirical evidence threw out the concept of objective truth in everything else you should realize they are talking in bad faith.
It's not that they want evidence or truth, they just know it's a useful tactic to use against you.
It's because the gospel's being reliable eye-witness accounts are integral to the foundation of christianity, the death and resurrection of Jesus. If the gospels aren't reliable eye-witness accounts, then the claims of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection have no ground to stand on, that's why muslims, atheists, and critical scholars try so discredit it.
@KasperKatje Where's the mistake?
Peter (Mark) was present, Mary (Luke) was present, John (John) was present.
IP loves presuppositional apologetics. None of the evidence he provides are slam dunks, even if he states them as matter of fact.
That gives another meaning to Peter being the foundation of the church, him being the first Eyewitness to pass on the Gospel, that’s definitely a pivotal accomplishment for the mission.
Respectfully, it is the _revelation_ of Peter (“You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God”), which serves as the foundation of the church. Not Peter himself.
@@EmilyTodicescu Respectfully, the vast majority of the Early Church Fathers disagree with your statement.
@@lorenzo_primomo.97 Lange’s Commentary on the Holy Scriptures (p. 296) quotes Augustine as saying: “The rock is not so named from Peter, but Peter from the rock (non enim a Petro petra, sed Petrus a petra), even as Christ is not so called after the Christian, but the Christian after Christ. For the reason why the Lord says, ‘On this rock I will build my church,’ is that Peter had said: ‘Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.’ On this rock, which thou hast confessed, says he, I will build my church. For Christ was the rock (petra enim erat Christus), upon which also Peter himself was built; for other foundation can no man lay, than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” - Translated and edited by P. Schaff, 1976.

I believe that Luke's gospel also contains various passages that likely came from direct translations of Aramaic. In particular much of the infancy narrative in Luke seems to be derived from an Aramaic source. This seems to support the idea that Mary herself could have provided the details of said story in Luke.
“In particular much of the infancy narrative in Luke seems to be derived from an Aramaic source” supported by what data exactly?

Aside from the fact that Mark’s connection to Peter was well known among the early church fathers and is attested by other parts of the New Testament (1 Pet 5:13; Acts 12:12-17), the Gospel of Mark itself draws connections to Peter by forming another literary inclusio that centers on Peter himself-the first disciple mentioned in Mark is Peter (Mk 1:16) and the last disciple mentioned is Peter (Mk 16:7). Moreover, both of these mentions of Peter are quite emphatic-Mark goes out of his way to bring Peter to the forefront of each passage. This Petrine inclusio, combined with the inordinately high number of times the name Peter occurs in the Gospel and the manner in which Peter dominates the narratives of the disciples, makes it clear that Peter was to be understood as the “main eyewitness source behind Mark’s gospel.” Hengel observes, “Simon Peter is as a disciple named first and last in the Gospel to show that it is based on his tradition and therefore his authority.”
Martin Hengel, The Four Gospels and the One Gospel of Jesus Christ (Harrisburg, PA: Trinity Press International, 2000)
I think certain sceptics like Paulogia are too quick to dismiss the Gospels as distant hearsay and/or embellishment legends written down by annonymous Christians with the reasoning sometimes being based on the presence of miracles since even if the traditional 4 men weren't correct that wouldn't necessarily mean they couldn't be based on eyewitness testimony and must be those options instead.
It's better to not confuse possibility with probability.
To say it's all wrong is just too silly
@@DylanO-o1gTell that to "Godless Engineer" and other Mythicists because they're obviously putting themselves in that position.
*anonymous not annonymous.
I think a lot of it comes from an ontological prejudice against miracles. And, more importantly, a strong assumption against the extraordinary. In my opinion, these biases don't just run against the miraculous, but extraordinary events in general.
Leibniz, the philosopher famed for calculus and monads, made a point that God never does things out of order, so that miracles aren't necessarily against created orders (perhaps we can say natural laws), but rather are against our ordinary experience. I think Leibniz could be correct, in that the prejudice against miracles is a prejudice and projection of ordinary experience (example: "I've never seen it, ergo it can't happen"), rather than an appeal to true natural order and regularity.
@@johnnylollard7892 I see Leibniz, I upvote. I'm only familiar with his mathematical work. Apparently I need to broaden my reading list on him.
Yes, Mark gave us Peter's eyewitness account of Jesus. Suck it up, skeptics!

2:48 there is a dispute over that passage from Justin Martyr. It can also be translated as "memoirs about Jesus" and so isn't necessarily referring to Peter's memoirs there.

Thank you so much for your timely and well researched video! This is a great contribution to our understanding! The book titles are also a goldmine!
This is pure gold!
Great video.
I think that (i) the unanimous testimony of the Church fathers (including Papias who was collecting his information when some disciples of Jesus were still alive- Aristion and John the Elder) and (ii) the extensive internal evidence (the names correctly reflecting 1st Century Judea, the listing of the 12 disciples by name, the specific naming of a few not so relevant individuals for no particular reason other than seemingly because these persons were known- e.g., Simon of Cyrene father of Alexander and Rufus, the early semitism in some passages suggesting authentic sayings, the description of Jewish customs pre-70AD, not mentioning the destruction of the Temple, the relative modest claims about Jesus travels - as opposed to Apollonius of Tyana who traveled to Rome, India, and Spain according to Philostratus, etc.) both point toward the very probable fact that Mark was an early Gospel written by an eyewitness of Peter.
Another interesting point is that there is decent evidence to suggest that the longer ending of Mark was written by Ariston of Smyrna, who was actually an eyewitness and a disciple who would have known Jesus personally. This is likely Papias' source for the Markan gospel.
Very well presented, lots of factual evidence that dismiss all the myths lies & fabrication told of the Gospels. Thank you , peace & blessings 🙏✝️🙏

What're your thoughts on the transcendental argument for the existence of God?
Best argument in my opinion
Jay dyer has done hours of lectures on this its quite a unique argument if i had to rank it from 1-10 id say 9 my only problem is it just points to diesm not the christian god jay has attempted to make it point to the christian god but idk im just a slowboi so maybe im misssing something but yeah jay has proved the TAG is a killer argument
Id say IPs emergent universe argument is my second favorite argument it has potential i hope he does more on this after the reliability of the gospels
Love this video. God bless you. Since you have starting engaging Islam, can we expect some videos on Christianity and Islam?
I think many who are reading the Scriptures today have conveniently forgotten what life was like before the Internet, or even the printing press, and that it would have been impossible for these Biblical authors to mimic the minutiae/particulars of first-century Judaea.
Uh, Crossley is and Casey was an atheist so they obviously don't believe any of the supernatural stuff was actually eyewitnessed by anyone. Casey makes this clear in his book Jesus of Nazareth. You make it seem like everything Mark wrote came from Peter but these scholars do not actually endorse that position.
I never said that. Don’t put words in my mouth.
@@InspiringPhilosophy Again, you use them to support Mark's gospel being largely dependent on Peter's testimony. Casey explicitly denies this. Also, how does the source being written in Aramaic show it's true? Fiction or mistaken beliefs can be written in any language.
No, I used a mix of scholars. I only used Casey on the passages he cited, which were on screen.
@@InspiringPhilosophy What was the point of citing "Aramaic sources" if you weren't trying to make the connection to the Aramaic speaking Peter?
I obviously was. But remember my argument for that section was two-fold. If Casey notes the Aramaic sources came from a member of the 12 and unanimous church tradition is that Mark’s source was Peter then the simplest explanation is Peter is Mark’s source. Casey doesn’t go that far but I added additional details to support the inference.
wonderful as usual
Question: will you ever make a video on the transcendental argument?
Impressive work! Thank you!
Hey, Michael! You should do a video about whether or not verses 9-20 should be included in Mark 16, and whether or not they are accurate, and written by Mark. All sorts of Bibles now are counting those verses out, either bracketing them, or discluding them from the text. And when those verses are removed, there are no post-resurrection appearances of Jesus recorded in the gospel.
@inspiringPhilosophy Hey brother, is there a video or link to an article you can point me to that deals with figuring out the dating of other epistles apart from the Pauline epistles? If possible the Old Testament as well. Keep up the good work.
Great job presenting the case for your positon. Very comprehensive. My only let down was that the video didnt conclude with a brief polemic on the arguments that Mark is not based on eyewitness accounts.
If there were undeniable and sufficient proof of the existence of God, the scientific world would be in turmoil. All the major scientific journals, all the university faculties would fight to receive the genius behind the demonstration. All the talk-shows, the television news around the world, all the magazines on the planet would offer millions $ to the lucky person to have exclusive access to the story of his discovery. But nothing happens.
This phenomena is compatible with christian theology, so this argument wouldn’t hold much merit against a christian
Awesome!!!

Sceptics are continually wrong. Archeology is just one trend that keeps proving the Bible.

@@Commanderhurtz1 prophecies without a time limit that people are trying over and over to fulfill arent so impressive. What exact details did you have in mind?
Well archeology is demonstrating SOME parts of the Bible being accurate and at the same time revealing that many other parts are NOT accurate.
@@Greyz174 " prophecies without a time limit that people are trying over and over to fulfill arent so impressive. " Keep raising the bar, why should a prophecy have a time limit?

How about the white Sulphur in the area of Sodom and Gomorrah, along with the evident burnt buildings in the area?
I’d love to see a video like this on the other three Gospels
I quite like these videos that give tons of really solid info about the Bible and its reliability. I have used these videos to show that the Bible I love to read is actually reliable, most people do not know that the Bible is reliable, most people have not opened a Bible in their life. But if people like skeptics would come to the table with an open mind, they would find that the Bible is reliable, and that indeed, Jesus rose from the dead, thus, He is the Son of God.
Hi IP
Great work there!❤
When will you post a video for Luke-Acts?(there are couple interesting things to say there, the “we” passages is fascinating! It clearly shows that Luke was a follower of Paul and agrees in a lot of things with him,but scholars like B.Ehrman dismiss their friendship based on “contradictions” that can be explained easy…❤)
I m so “mad” to see this much ignorance from Ehrman,he just focuses on the “contradictions” but totally ignores all the facts Luke said about Paul.

Amazing the claims religious people make without proving anything.
When I was in seminary, we learned about these "scholars" and knew they had little or no evidence for what they claimed. It was a waste of time studying them.
Which scholars?
@js1817 That was like 30 years ago, but it was the likes of Rudolph Bultmann.
It seems as if these scholars made a strong case for their respective positions by conducting a significant amount of textual research and analysis. It's too bad you were incorrectly told that it was a "waste of time" studying them.
@@HarryPairatestes363 No, we studied them. It was a waste because their evidence was weak, mostly based on assumptions and their lack of archeological curiosity. They assumed that the early church were a bunch of liars, that miracles were impossible, and that everything was written late.

One correction: Alexander, brother of Rufus, did not apparently make it to Rome, or else returned to Jerusalem afterward. An ossuary was found from the first century for "Alexander of Cyrene," a highly unusual name and likely that of the first son of Simon of Cyrene. See Shimon Gibson, The Final Days of Jesus: The Archaeological Evidence (2010, HarperOne).
The reason to not just rely on oral tradition and actually write down a gospel early ones like Mark because we were losing the living voice ( eye witnesses ) there’s a huge impetus in the second half of the first century AD to produce documents that allow us to not lose the memory what Jesus was like, what he did and of what he said and what his earliest followers were like as well. That's the Impetus behind the writings of the New Testament between 49-100 all 27 of the Documents of the new testament seem to have been written -Dr. Ben Witherington
