Although it appears second in the `New Testament`, `Mark` is generally recognized as the first Gospel to be written. This work points out, the `Gospel of Mark` can be understood only against the backdrop of the apocalyptic atmosphere of the Jewish rebellions of 66-73 ce, during which the Roman army destroyed the Temple of Jerusalem (70 CE).
