Mark, St, Evangelist.
Papias asserts that Mark, having become the interpreter of St Peter, set down everything he remembered of the words and actions of the Lord, and Mark is associated with Peter in 1 Pet. 5: 13. He has traditionally (but perhaps unjustifiably) been identified with John Mark, the cousin of St
Barnabas, who set out with Barnabas and St
Paul on their first missionary journey, but turned back; he later accompanied Barnabas on a mission to
Cyprus and was in Rome with Paul. According to
Eusebius Mark went to
Alexandria and was its first bishop; later tradition associated him with
Venice. Feast day, 25 Apr.
