Excerpt from The Origin and Peculiar Characteristics of the Gospel of S. Mark, and Its Relation to the Other Synoptists, Being the Ellerton Essay, 1896
Few passages of any writer ancient or modern have given rise to so much controversy as this fragment. As will be seen hereafter, it presents some difficulties which in the absence of the complete work of Papias may remain unsolved, but it is sufficient here to notice what is after all the main fact which it attests, namely, the intimate connexion between S. Mark and S. Peter. This is borne out by the witness of later writers, while differences in detail show that their statements are not based merely on the authority of Papias. Some of the notices are very obscure, and it is difficult to prove conclusively their reference to our Gospel of S. Mark, although the balance of evidence seems to point in that direction.
