112. Because
It was written at different times after the death of Jesus. Based upon the logic that the closer to Jesus death the more accurate. Mark was written about 60 years after Jesus death. So if you want to pick the most accurate account of Jesus, that would be Mark. I forgot the name of the Jewish scribe that recorded the events back then. But he has the second earliest account of Jesus and his followers. My information comes from the lecture series from a professor with the teaching company. (They have a web site.) This is a secular look at early Judaism and Christianity. I am about to go to bed so I will look up the stuff later and post it.
