“stand on the issue of Marcan priority?”
I think Mark made use of Matthew and Luke, and added a little bit of material.
"You mean deleted a lot of material, don’t you?"
A little bit of material is unique to Mark, and was incorporated into Mark by Mark.
When meandering through Matthew and Luke, Mark selected material from Matthew and Luke to incorporate into Mark's account.
I wouldn't say Mark "deleted" material.
If I write a paper and quote a lot from 10 different books and articles, I selected material from those 10 items to incorporate into my paper.
I wouldn't say I "deleted" material from those 10 items.
A chart in this book illustrates the path that Mark took in compiling his gospel using material from Matthew and Luke.
