Gospel of Luke

The Bible has four gospels but, only two of them contain the nativity story. The two gospels that have the nativity story are the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke. Both are similar on a literary level which can be explained by the synoptic problem. The Gospel of Mark and the source “Q” were the basis of these two gospels. Matthew and Luke shared sources but, they had their individual sources too. The genealogy, the nativity, and the childhood of Jesus played significant roles within the respective

The canon brought the four gospels about, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John (Evangelists) . These four gospels paint a different picture of Christ and were written for different audiences. Matthew, Mark and Luke are said to be very similar to each other. But, there is things which are common to Matthew and Luke that aren’t seen in Mark. Matthew and Luke used another source which Mark didn’t know about, the ‘Q’ source. John’s gospel is quite different to the other three. He is shown as someone who is very

I did my project on the art exhibit titled the “Gospel of Luke and John”, particularly the Gospel of Luke and the illustration on the first page. The Gospel of Luke on display is an illuminated manuscript that forms part of the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It is of Byzantine origin and is dated to have been written between the twelfth and thirteenth century. The exact illustrator and scrip is unknown, but it is handwritten using the Greek language. Prior to the 15th century this was a common

There are many similarities between the Gospel of Luke, Mark, and Matthew. But one difference is the way in which they are written. Luke unlike the other two begins his Gospel with a introduction called a historiographic preface. This is a Greco-Roman literary device used by authors to express the depth of the research and scholarship included in the work. Ehrman states "they commonly refer to the sources that were at his disposal, and they not infrequently suggest that the final product of the

three Gospels—Matthew, Mark, and Luke—are very similar in content, sequence of events, and literary style. As a result, they are given the name the Synoptic Gospels. The term “synoptic” means “viewing together.” The Gospel of John, however, is comparatively distinct from the first three. John’s omission of certain material, inclusion of unique events, literary style, and theme place it into a category by itself. The Synoptic Gospels include parallel stories and events that the Gospel of John

four gospels and the authors who wrote them are: Mark, Luke, Matthew, and John. The ways that the gospels are different are, they all have different angels, the four gospels have given details over Christ’s life and Ministry. Each author is presenting different parts of aspects of Jesus’ Character. We need these four gospels because each gospel has different information that the other gospels don’t have. They have different answers and perspectives and that’s why we have four different gospels that

Luke was the only author of the Bible who was a physician. His two books in the Bible, which are the gospel of Luke and the book of Acts, are constructed in a highly scientific way. He was not present at the time in which the gospel was written and so he had to acquire all of the data through interviewing others to be able to write a truthful account of the stories told. The book of Acts is partly a collection of observations of the events that he witnessed. Through these two methods, Luke was able

When comparing the synoptic gospels and their parables and stories, you can see similarities and differences between them. In the story of Jesus calming the storm Matthew, Mark, and Luke all have their own take on the story. In each of these books, it’s clear they each have a few things in common, as well as key differences. The similarities in the versions of the stories are obvious. In each book, it is seen that Jesus and His disciples were on a boat. While on the boat Jesus proceeds to fall

In the gospels of the New Testament Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John there is one parable of Jesus’ miracles that is common to all four, the feeding of the multitudes. Each gospel presents the miracle is almost the same except for the gospel of John. Before breaking down the parable understanding a basic background of the authors and each gospel is key. The gospel of Mathew is believed by scholars to be written by Matthew, a Jewish tax collector from Rome. He is later known as one of Jesus twelve

Introduction 224 The Gospel of Luke is considered to be the one Synoptic Gospel that is the most emphatic about how Christian disciples are to share their material wealth and possessions to help the poor. Pope Benedict XVI has described Saint Luke as “the Evangelist of the poor, and his ‘preferential option for the poor’ is unmistakable.” This paper will look at the type of relationship that Luke suggests that should exist between the plousios (i.e. the rich or wealthy) and the ptóchos (i.e.
