Final Round: Crucifixion and Resurrection

Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection are of the most important part of the Gospels. Both John and Mark spend a long time talking about the Last Supper, of Judas' betrayal and the judgement of Jesus. There is one thing in which Mark focuses the most, which is on Jesus' humiliation. He talks a whole deal of how they spat on him, they whipped him and let him to die in the cross. Reading the crucifixion according to Mark was like watching "The Passion of the Christ" with less blood.
Earlier in the Gospel, Jesus predicts his death and resurrection three times, but nobody really understand what he says. Later, when he relates the Parable of the Wicked Husbandmen, everything becomes clear to everyone. Still, nobody does anything to stop it because "it is written". Judas betrays Jesus, even when he predicts it in the Last Supper, and Peter, like Jesus predicted, "That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice."(Mark 14:30).
 It seem it really was written, because even when Jesus warned them ahead, they both did what they were meant to do. What later came was a perfect portrayal of "The Passion of the Christ". Like the Gospel said:
"And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head, and began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him."(Mark 15:17-20). I remember watching this in the movie, and it really was as terrible (or worse) as it sounds.
In the end, after Jesus finally dies, he is buried and three days later, he resurrects and ascends to heaven while his disciples spread his message. This part in the Gospel of Mark was a little short. John, on the other hand, focused more on the resurrection than on the crucifixion's details (then again, there were some things that appeared in Mark that didn't on John and vice-versa). Anyway, I suppose that if you combine what each Gospel says, we can have a very good account of how the life, death and resurrection of the Christ was. They all seem to have something the other one doesn't have, and so they must somehow complement each other.
