Luke the Evangelist

The Gospel of Mark represents Jesus in a prophetic way. In the Gospels of Mark, Jesus is known as the Son of Man, and he is seen helping and healing many of his followers.

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.
