Biography

Mark Goodacre’s first job was a paperboy at age 11.[2]

Goodacre received his MA, M.Phil, and DPhil at the University of Oxford, and has been at Duke University since 2005. [3]

Goodacre has written extensively on the Synoptic Problem; he defends the Farrer hypothesis,[1] and thus accepts Markan priority but rejects Q. He is the author of The Case Against Q: Studies in Markan Priority and the Synoptic Problem and Thomas and the Gospels: The Case for Thomas's Familiarity with the Synoptics.[3] Goodacre’s book The Fourth Synoptic Gospel: John’s Knowledge of Matthew, Mark, and Luke argues that John was aware of and utilized all three Synoptics.[4][5]

He has also been a consultant for numerous television and radio shows related to the New Testament, such as the 2001 BBC series Son of God and the 2013 mini-series The Bible.[6]

Reception

Goodacre has been described as the leading advocate of the Farrer Hypothesis, which is currently enjoying growing popularity among Biblical scholars.[7][8] Simon Joseph writes that The Case Against Q brought an end to the “exuberant hegemony” of the Two-source hypothesis.[9] Hugo Mendez credits Goodacre with transforming the way a generation of scholars view the Synoptic Gospels, the Gospel of Thomas, and the Gospel of John.[10]
