The Oldest Surviving Writings of the Gospel Found?


Quite possible.

From a piece in Forbes...

The jury is out on this for a while, but a recent archaeological discovery could represent the oldest surviving copy of the Gospels.

According to Bible scholar Daniel B. Wallace of the Dallas Theological Seminary, fragments from the Gospel of Mark may date to as early as the late first century.

The claim comes well in advance of the official report to be published next year.
