What Jesus Did:
The Answer To WWJD
The ending of Mark has posed interesting problems for Bible scholars and students throughout the ages. Some of the most reliable manuscripts end with Mark 16:8. The remaining verses seem to have been added at a later date. The longer ending of Mark looks like a compilation of fragments from the resurrection accounts found in the other Gospels. Even so, it is possible that we have some of Mark's original thoughts in this ending. The commission in Mark is in keeping with the theme and tone of Mark.
