<p style='word-break:break-word;white-space:pre-wrap'>Today's the day. I've spent weeks trying to dig deep on the debate of whether the last 12 verses of the Gospel of Mark are actually part of the Gospel of Mark.

This is a book where 4 scholars each build a case for their different views on the ending of Mark. It’s a good introduction into the issues of the debate even if no one scholar has the space to fully flesh out their case. “Perspectives on the Ending of Mark: Four Views” https://www.amazon.com/Perspectives-Ending-Mark-Daniel-Wallace-ebook/dp/B004OR17WK/
|

|

Nicholas Lunn recently wrote a book offering a very detailed case that the longer ending always part of Mark’s Gospel. At first I found Lunn’s book to be really helpful in challenging the scholarly majority. But after spending a lot of time with it I’ve come to think that his work causes more confusion than clarity on the topic. Uneven standards in how evidence is handled make his work difficult to read without leading to important misimpressions. “The Original Ending of Mark: A New Case for the Authenticity of Mark 16:9-20” https://www.amazon.com/Original-Ending-Mark-Case-Authenticity-ebook/dp/B00OU6OB78/

|
||
Larry Hurtado offered three short reviews of Lunn’s book, all three at this link. http://evangelicaltextualcriticism.blogspot.com/search/label/Nicholas%20P.%20Lunn
|
||
|

James Snapp’s theory is that Mark wrote the longer ending but it was originally not part of the Gospel of Mark. It was taken from some other work from Mark and then added on to the end of the Gospel of Mark. He offers 5 different theories for why it is missing from some manuscripts. I respect Snapp’s tenacity but I think his logic has regular logical problems. I mean no insult by this, I just want you to be prepared to think very carefully about what he says. His book, “Authentic: The Case for Mark 16:9-20”, is free here. https://www.academia.edu/12545835/Authentic_The_Case_for_Mark_16_9_20

The most helpful resource I found for dealing with the internal evidence in the longer ending of Mark is this article from Travis Williams. https://www.academia.edu/1444542/Bringing_Method_to_the_Madness_Examining_the_Style_of_the_Longer_Ending_of_Mark
|
||
|
||
My verse by verse study of the longer ending of Mark is here. It’s long, methodical and shows that the passage doesn’t pose theological problems, even if it wasn’t written by Mark. https://youtu.be/zA6s9O4o5Uo
|
||
|
||
For the 12th century Greek Codex 304, which is Byzantine in nature and ends Mark at 16:8, see the two links following; and you’ll need them because Snapp and Lunn have bad info on this. The text is viewable here. https://mr-mark16.sib.swiss/show?id=R0EzMDQ=

A helpful commentary, from Dr. Mina Monier, on the text and its significance can be found here. https://mark16-etalk.sib.swiss/index.php?dir=Mark16_MM_1#0

The MARK16 Project is awesome. Their website has a lot of helpful stuff and I expect a lot more in years to come. https://mark16.sib.swiss/
