After reading both Matthew and Marks interpretations of the New Testament, I can see many similarities and differences between them. Both stories have obvious similarities like Jesus being the Messiah and the use of the same lines. Other example would be actions taken be characters, like how Jesus went around spreading his teachings, or events, when Jesus was crucified. Generally the similarities mostly had to do with the life, teachings, and death of Jesus. I found that the teachings of Jesus…

On 7/25/16 I met Mr. Kabel at the office of Dr. Beird. The office was filled to capacity and the wait was extended. Mr. Kabel reports that the right hand is better. The left hand is still painful.

This reflection paper is a compilation of the readings from week twelve (Perkins and Tyson) and thirteen (Perkins). Perkins’ chapter on the Gospel of Luke gave a detailed summation to several aspects of the good news written by the second-hand author. She of course begins by pointing out the dedication to Theophilus and its honorable admission as a work compiled by an indirect follower of Jesus. The author admits to not being present with Jesus and has in point of fact only had the tradition…

his true identity. Christ preached to crowds of thousands, his message heard throughout the land even after he rose to his father in heaven. All of these events have been recorded in the four Gospels in the New Testament. The authors, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, all capture the extraordinary life of Jesus Christ from very different angles. The Gospels are able to relate to all people of any age, due to the versatility of the teachings. The meanings of the teachings are different to every…

The Gospels are the first four books of the New Testament in the Bible that record the good news of God’s plan for a Savior through the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Writing from before Jesus’ birth to about AD 85, each author had a particular style to communicate the life and meaning of Jesus. Though the methods may differ, each Gospel writer’s main purpose was to call people to faith (Elwell and Yarbrough 59). The book of Matthew was originally written for the Jews…

The Gospel of Mary is a non-canonical Gnostic gospel that is attributed to have been written by Mary Magdalene or Mary the mother of Jesus. Three copies of the gospel have been discovered, one was written in the Sahidic dialect of Coptic, and two others in Greek. Most scholars agree that the first manuscript was originally written in Greek sometime during the second century CE, which was found later on in Northern Egypt. What gives us a clue that this text was written during this time was that…

The letter to Theodore by Clement claims the pollution of ‘the sacred meaning’ of the secret book of Mark took place because of a supposed ‘copied text’ that told shameful lies that was developed by the Carpocratians. This group was mainly prominent in the second century and was known to be one of the most scandalous of the Gnostic sects, an early and extreme variance that claimed to be Christian. Their teachings centered on the belief that only by committing all possible sexual acts could a…
