8 Those who received Mark’s Gospel were possibly resident in one of the great urban Roman centres, perhaps even Rome itself, around the 70s CE. For those who posit Rome as the setting for Mark, see, for example, Josef Ernst, Das Evangelium nach Markus (Regensburg: Pustet Verlag, 1998), pp. 112–14; Martin Hengel, Studies in the Gospel of Mark (Philadelphia, PA: Fortress Press, 1985), pp. 1–30; Raymond E. Brown and John P. Meier, Antioch and Rome: New Testament Cradles of Catholic Christianity (New York: Paulist Press, 1983), pp. 191–7; Robert A. Guelich, Mark 1—8:26 (Dallas, TX: World Publishing, 1989), pp. xxix–xxxi; Morna Hooker, ‘Trials and Tribulations in Mark XIII’, Bulletin of the John Rylands University Library of Manchester 65 (1982), pp. 78–99. A minority posit a rural audience, not too distant from Jesus’ context in ancient Palestine/Israel. Francis Moloney conjectures Mark’s location as ‘somewhere in southern Syria’ and dates it after 70 CE but before 75 CE, in The Gospel of Mark: A Commentary (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2002), p. 11. Morna Hooker later sums up the scholarship on Mark’s provenance: ‘All we can say with certainty, therefore, is that the Gospel was composed somewhere in the Roman Empire – a conclusion that scarcely narrows the field at all!’; Hooker, Gospel According to St. Mark (London: A & C Black,
