The author of this particular book of the Bible is unknown, making the book of Hebrews. Although this is the case, there have been many speculations to who the author could be. For 1200 years (400-1600 AD) Hebrews was referred to as ““The Epistle of Paul to the Hebrews.” But as theologian discover there is no real reason to believe that Paul would be the author of Hebrews. The author never identifies himself as Paul and authority of the apostolic nature is no mention which is not typical of the

In Colossians 3:22, it said” Bondservants, obey in everything those who are you earthly master, not by way of eye-services, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord.” In Matthew 19:19, it said that we should love our neighbor as ourself. I think this relates to one another because in both of the passages, it said that we should love one another. In Colossians 3:22, it said “Bondservants, obey in everything those who are you

of the measure, (Mk. 4:25[NRSV]). The same declaration, almost word for word appears twice in separate occasions in Matthew verses 13:12 and in 25:29 and in Luke 8:18 as well as in 19:26. The same dynamic appears twenty two times in Matthew where as according to scholars who support the outside sources theory, the doublets mentioned above allegedly prove that the writers of Matthew and Luke both took liberty in benefiting from the Markan account as well as the “Q”, “M” and that of the “L” sources

The Bible is full of narratives and accounts which point to our need for a savior and God meeting that need through Jesus Christ. The New Testament begins with four accounts of Christ's life; same person, same life, somewhat different stories. In general, it seems as though the church looks at all the gospels as a whole, treating each gospel as pieces of a puzzle that give us a full picture of Jesus’s time here on earth. However, if we look at it from the perspective of the people who would be reading

The Gospel of Mark is the shortest but contains prominent themes. The book has an immense significance in the Christian religion. In this gospel, we are introduced to Jesus and right away, one can conclude that he is the Son of God as "the Son of God" MT 1:1. It is a recurring assertion throughout the gospel that Jesus was the Son of God. As the Gospel begins, Satan tempts Jesus lived a short life, but his teachings and wisdom were vital and caused a reformation in Israel. Jesus use of parables

widely accepted theory. The Augustinian Theory suggests that Matthew was written in Aramaic and the first Gospel. Then it says that Mark was written based off of Mathew and was written in Greek when Hellenistic culture became prominent which is why it is the shorter Gospel. The Griesbach Hypothesis, also known as the Two-Gospel hypothesis, written by 18th century biblical scholar Griesbach, maintains that the order of the Gospels is Matthew, Luke, then Mark. However, neither of these solutions accounts

Interstellar, directed by Christopher Nolan, released in October of 2014, is a science-fiction film starring Matthew Mcconaughey about a team of astronauts who explore through a black hole in an attempt to save humanity. The movie uses exciting music and detailed scenery to give the audience an amazing experience. The almost three hour movie gives the reader nothing but excitement from one scene to the next. The obstacles they face become more and more frustrating, but yet still engaging. In the

Luke's genealogy of Jesus and his birth narrative compare with the one found in Matthew's gospel is that the birth narratives in both Matthew and Luke helps their readers to know who Jesus is and where he comes from. Luke's genealogy of Jesus and his birth focuses on Mary Jesus's mother. Luke tells the story from her perspective. Luke could have found Mary and spoke to her himself, because, at that time he was in Palestine with Paul. It was Luke who recorded the annunciation to Mary, her visit to

Saint Gabriel’s feast day is September 29. He is the patron saint of messengers, and postal workers. Gabriel is also known as a messenger of God. He is mentioned in the Old and New Testament. In one of the Old Testament biblical stories Gabriel appears to the prophet Daniel to interpret his visions. Daniel described Gabriel as “one who looked like man”. After Gabriel appears to Daniel in his dreams he becomes tired and sick for a while. Gabriel comes a second time to give Daniel more understanding

Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are just this: uncalled for and uncommon. This plagiarism issue is summed up at “the Synoptic Problem”, making the Gospels of Mark, Matthew, and Luke the synoptic gospels. The problem shows how many passages of the three gospels have the same wording, sometimes in the same order. However, the similarities balance out with the vast differences between what is included and what is not. The Gospel of Mark contains the most shared passages between Matthew and Luke.
