And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

MARK 5:1

6 of 43

And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

MARK 5:2

7 of 43

Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

MARK 5:3

8 of 43

Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

MARK 5:4

9 of 43

And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

10 of 43

But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

15 of 43

Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

MARK 5:11

16 of 43

And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

MARK 5:12

17 of 43

And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

MARK 5:13

18 of 43

And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

MARK 5:14

19 of 43

And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.

MARK 5:23

28 of 43

And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.

MARK 5:24

29 of 43

And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

MARK 5:25

30 of 43

And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

MARK 5:26

31 of 43

When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

MARK 5:27

32 of 43

For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

33 of 43

And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

35 of 43

36 of 43

And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

MARK 5:32

37 of 43

But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

MARK 5:33

38 of 43

And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

MARK 5:34

39 of 43

While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?

BIBLE CANON: 5

A biblical canon is a set of texts (or "books") which a particular religious community regards as authoritative scripture. Christians were the first to use the term in reference to scripture.

These bible canons have developed through debate and agreement by the religious authorities.

W Biblical_canon

1. Marcion Canon | BIBLE CANON 140 AD
Marcionism was a religious movement based on the teachings of the 2nd-century Marcion of Sinope. Marcions Canon lists 14 books out of the 27 books in the New Testament. More specifically, these were Luke and Paul's 13 writings. Marcion even rejected the entire Old Testament of 39 books.

W Marcion_of_Sinope

Mark was REJECTED (0%) by Marcion Canon
(No mention; no quotes; opinion unknown)

2. Muratorian Canon | BIBLE CANON 170 AD
The Muratorian Canon is an ancient list of New Testament books - the oldest such list we have found and lists 22 of the 27 books that were later included in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.

It is noteworthy that the Muratorian Canon omits several epistles that later did win acceptance in the Christian New Testament such as the books of James and 2 Peter.

4. Cheltenham/ Mommsen List | BIBLE CANON 360 AD
The Cheltenham or Mommsen List is a Latin manuscript discovered by the German classical scholar Theodor Mommsen (published 1886) which probably originated in North Africa in the 4th century.

It has 24-book Old Testament and 24-book New Testament which omits Jude and James, and perhaps Hebrews, and questions the epistles of John and Peter.

5. Council of Rome | BIBLE CANON 382 AD
The Council of Rome was a meeting of Catholic Church officials and theologians which took place in 382 under the authority of Pope Damasus I, bishop of Rome.

According to a document appended to some manuscripts, the Council of Rome affirmed the authority of the Old and New Testament canon in a decretal or damasine list.

Mark 5
TEXTUAL CRITICISM

And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well

MARK 16:17

Mark 16:17 exists only in the "longer version" of Mark and was not part of the original gospel of Mark; it was added much later. This verse does not appear in the manuscript evidence in the first 300-years of the common era. The first Bible to include this verse was Codex Washingtonianus dated to the 5th century.

Therefore, 400-years after Jesus and the Bible was finalised, Christian scholars were 'inventing' entire verses and inserting them into the canon Bible.
