Synoptic Gospels

To me, the key differences between the gospel of Luke and the synoptic gospels largely derive from the role of the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ life and God’s plan for the world. This idea is exemplified by significant difference between the risen Jesus remaining as a presence in the church (Mark and Mathew) and the promise of Jesus sending the Holy Spirit’s companionship (Luke [24:48]). In addition, Jesus is a spirit- an empowered servant whose work here on earth will appeal to Isaiah’s prophecies…

amount of differences between John’s Gospel and the Synoptics. The Synoptics consist of the Gospels Matthew, Mark, and Luke. All three Gospels have a large narrative approach. They include geographical settings, extensive numbers of characters, and a considerable amount of dialogue. They also capture Jesus as teaching generally through parables and short sequences of proclamation. John’s Gospel, however, is much more drawn out and inner-directed. John’s Gospel clarifies many doctrines through…

In Theology we had to do a research project on one of the Synoptic Gospels. I chose to do a research paper on the infancy narrative in Matthew’s Gospel. The term infancy narrative is used described the birth and early life of Jesus the Messiah. The infancy narrative in Matthew’s Gospel is broken into many parts; including: the genealogy of Jesus, the conception and birth of Jesus, the visit of the Magi, the flight to Egypt and massacre of the infants, and the return from Egypt. I will be…

The Synoptic Gospels illustrates Jesus as an universal savior that came from the heaven as flesh. In Matthew, Mark, and Luke, Jesus is the promised Messiah from the Old Testament, the human son of God, and the universal savior, respectively. To start, Matthew, one of the twelve disciples, wrote the Gospel of Matthew for Jewish Christian. Matthew wrote this book in order to proclaim that Jesus is truly the promised Messiah that is stated in the Old Testament. Matthew proves that Jesus is the…

The Synoptic Gospels are very similar in text but, speaks from their own perspectives. However, some of the major differences between the Gospel of John and the Synoptic Gospels is first the terminology. Within the Synoptic Gospels you would find many parables within the teaching. John refers to the “word” as logos meaning the preexistent Christ. The Synoptic Gospels are similar in text unlike the Book of John. The geography in the Book of John focuses on Jesus’s visit to Jerusalem to and from,…

The two passages from the synoptic gospels, Matthew 15:21-28 and Mark 7:24-30, both create accounts of an event that occurred somewhere throughout the life and ministry of Jesus. Though these two synoptic gospels tend to be very similar in terms of the story and memoir, but they differentiate in the syntax, mood, phrasing, and the style of writing. Among these two passages from both of these gospels, it is clear that Matthew did not copy the writings of Mark’s gospel from word to word but rather…

The authors of the synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, each wrote their accounts from occurrences that took place in first-century Palestine. Although each gospel was written to a different audience and at different times, in each account, the subject is Jesus. Jesus’ life, ministry, and teachings were within the same century that the gospel writers wrote their accounts. Although little is known about first-century Palestine, there is enough documented history to see how the era and…

Everything I have read about the synoptic gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke reminds me of college writing now and plagiarism; with this said, I could define the synoptic problem as plagiarism. You see the synoptic problem is very close relationships of the writings in these books, by these three. They are very similar in so many ways Mark writing first, then Matthew and Luke following with the same stories just changed up a bit. Kind of like a close plagiarism with quotes and some paraphrasing…

there is one side of Yeshua that is rarely talked about: his teachings beings considered as revolutionary. Many of the words that he said and the acts that he committed were considered to be unprecedented in his day. From only looking at the Synoptic Gospels, readers will not be able to fully comprehend or grasp how Yeshua’s teachings were indeed revolutionary. This understanding is accomplished by knowing and researching the political and sociological aspects of his day. With many of the…
