Talk:Markan priority
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Would love to see someone provide the Greek language based argument for Markan priority. I've read it but don't have the scholarship to explain it adequately.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.202.227.235 (talk • contribs) 13:45, 5 November 2005.
[edit] We need a larger article...
The article should be larger so that we can discuss the traditionally held view that Mark's Gospel was written second. The original founders of the Church must have had some clue as to why they felt that way in the early second century...—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Band Aide (talk • contribs) 22:53, 11 July 2007.
[edit] Merger with Two-source article?
I would like to suggest that this article be merged with the two source article. Part of the same evidence used for showing Markan priority is also used for discussion of the two-source hypothesis. The two source hypothesis should first discuss the evidence for Markan priority, and then the evidence for the two-source hypothesis can be placed at the end. And then include discussion of the four-source hypothesis:
- Markan priority
- Two source
- Four source
Having separate articles on these issues seems redundant.172.165.126.194 00:10, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- I've just done a lot of work expanding the Two source hypothesis article. It now has a small section on Markan priority. Despite this, I'd like to see this article kept and expanded, so that anyone reading the other article and wanting extra information can come here, without this wealth of information overwhelming the first article.

There is no way this can be merged with 2SH, since there are theories which accept Markan Priority but reject Q, e.g. the Farrer hypothesis. Evercat (talk) 01:19, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
