Absolutely agree about Matthew. I like Mark's terseness and candour though. I guess my personal ranking is John=Mark>Luke>Matthew. Although I feel kind of bad for Luke now. Ok, let's make it John=Mark>Luke>>>Matthew.

Mark is the earliest Gospel written, right? The one written in the 50s or the 70s AD?

>the blood of Jesus is on the Jews' hands

This is something remarkable after digging past the surface, knee-jerk anti-Jewish interpretation of this statement. For one thing, sacrifice was the means for atonement for the Jews of the OT. Second, being a sacrifice was exactly the reason Jesus came.

tl;dr: having Jesus' blood on us is, in the grand scheme of thins, a very good thing.

And apropos of that, blessed Holy Week

John's book was my fave, the amount of passion dripping from every chapter of that book makes me want to be there with them

>50s
Thats Paul and MAYBE James. Mark was probably written around 69 as he seemed aware of the roman war but not the destruction of the temple.
