nÒÉ the Gospel acc to Mark had this occasion: When Peter had preached the
word publicly in Rome & had declared
the Gospel by the Spirit, those who were
present — they were many — besought
Mark, since he had followed him for a long time &
remembered the things that had been spoken, to
write out the things that had been said; and
when he had done this, he gave the Gospel to
those who had asked him. When Peter learned of it later, he neither obstructed nor commended it.Ó
