to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.” In Mark 16, when Jesus rises from the dead, he tells the disciples to go to the people to tell them about the word of the suffering servant and messiah: “Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:45). This shows that even Jesus himself has implied himself as one who should be proclaimed, as since even he is said in Mark to be the Son of Man, it is implied that he is the holy man that the world recognizes Jesus…

The Gospel of Matthew 1. Who was Matthew, and why was he qualified to write a book in the Bible? 1. Matthew was a tax collector who became a disciple of Jesus (Strauss, 2011, p. 5531). It is believed that he wrote the book of Matthew. He was more than qualified to write a book in the Bible because “as a tax collector, Matthew no doubt would have been proficient in both Aramaic and Greek” and would have been highly organized. Furthermore, he was one of Jesus’ twelve thus, he knew Jesus personally…

the Gospel of John Introduction The gospel of john and the Johannie espistle are both have written by the same author, even though there are different opinion about who wrote gospel of john and the Johannie espistle there are various facts and many evidence shows and approve they both have written by same author which is John and we do not forget that John is the disciple of Jesus. With that assumption, it is clear that there are so many relationships that can approve between the gospel of…

Katie Colucy Professor Bussy BIBL 102 New Testament 21 January 2016 The Gospels The Gospel consists of Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John. Within these books are four different authors. The uniqueness about each book is that they are all told from different perspectives centering on the coming of Jesus, His crucifixion, and resurrection. First we start off with Mathew which was written, "between Ad 80 and 100” (Elwell and Yarbrough 65). Mathew's point of view is all about how Jesus has fulfilled…

This essay will look at the Didache, it will start by looking at what the Didache is. Then looking at each part separately and discussing the contents, it will summarise each section of the Didache before analysing the possible use. It will then discuss how and why this is important for contemporary church historians. The Didache is quite a short work which is written in a very straightforward, practical way. It was thought to be lost until it was rediscovered in 1873 by Archbishop Bryennios, in…

Son The Gospels teach many Christians today about the life and teachings of Jesus . It is a common belief that Luke wrote the third gospel and the Acts of the Apostles, but modern-day scholars believe that we cannot be positive about the identity of the author as there is no documented author in the book. Luke wrote his work while in Antioch, a city in Syria, for a Gentile audience. Luke was composed somewhere in between 80 and 90 C.E. Acts of the Apostles was written shortly after the gospel…

John’s gospel is very different from Mark’s gospel; John’s gospel flows more like a story with a prologue and an epilogue. The stories that are in both John’s gospel and Mark’s gospel are not in the same order of events, nor are they told to happen in precisely the same way (Jesus does not calm the sea, Peter’s three denials of Jesus). John’s gospel contains many events that are not included in Mark’s gospel (water into wine, the woman at the well, washing of the disciples feet) and it spans…

Jesus was, the miracles he did, the sermons and parables he told, the prophecies he fulfilled, and the positive impact he had on those who came in contact with him. Mark’s ultimate goal in writing his gospel was to share the gospel or the good news of Jesus Christ. So much so that he uses the word gospel…

is proclaimed the “Troubadour” (Messiah) by the Earthmaker (God). Throughout the story, the Singer proclaims the Star Song, the Word of God, and is in constant conflict with the World Hater (Devil). The Singer shares several similarities with the Gospel of Mark: Mark’s portrait of Jesus is “The Suffering Servant” as shown through 8:31, 9:31& 9:12 where Jesus states that the Son of Man will suffer by man. The story portrays this when the Singer is speaking to his mother about how he will suffer…

episode out of two incidents which were historically separate. James the son of Zebedee: In the Gospel account of Mark, James is been described nine times (even though never by himself; it is always ‘Peter and James and John’ or imply that Matthew believed that Zebedee was married to Salome. It is interesting enough, that James the son of Zebedee and his brother are nowhere mentioned by name in the fourth Gospel. However, the son of Zebedee occurs in a list of disciples, and the two are…
