No one prior to the writing of Mark in the eighth decade ever seems to have associated miracles with Jesus. This fact surprises many. Paul, who wrote between 51 and 64 CE, never spoke of Jesus as a worker of miracles. The Q document, if its existence can be definitively established (I am quite skeptical), and if once established it can be dated as earlier than or even contemporaneous with Mark, contains no miracle narratives.* The Jesus of supernatural acts seems to be a late-developing portrait that people painted of him.
