Instead‚ when Eusebius issued his canons‚ he took the most popular Gospel‚ Matthew‚ and put it first.” (71) He argues that all Augustine did was try to show that Mark and Luke could be historically confirmed to Matthew He further argues that Dungan inappropriately implies that Markan priority

constant question for many‚ and the authorship of the book of Matthew is no different. No one really knows the person responsible for writing the first gospel of the New Testament for a number of reasons. As Leon Morris points out‚ the oldest known translation of Matthew is written in Greek‚ but there is considerable agreement that the disciple Matthew did not know Greek. Additionally‚ William Hendriksen concludes that since the book of Matthew draws knowledge from the gospels of Mark and John‚ it does

The Synoptic Gospels INTRODUCTION For centuries‚ the subject of synoptic gospels had fascinated Bible scholars and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. This is because the account of the life and work of the greatest Man in history cannot but elicit both religious and scholarly actions and reactions as man tries to find the meaning to his fleeting existence on earth. As Richard Bauckham puts it‚ this is all “…a matter of seemingly endless interest to believers‚ half-believers‚ ex-believers

of the largest is that in the Gospel of Matthew Jesus is restoring two possessed men while in the Gospels of Luke and Mark there is only one man that is being restored. This may be to simplify because in the Gospel of Luke and Mark the demon is called Legion because they are many‚ and in order to keep with the spirit of multiple demons for people to understand Matthew simply put two men instead of one. Another distinct difference between The Gospel of Matthew and that of the Gospels of Luke and Mark

Early church elders believed that Matthew of the twelve disciples was the author‚ but the apparent dependence on the Gospel of Mark has caused modern day scholars to abandon that theory.

There are many things that lead historians to believe that Matthew was writing to a Jewish or Jewish Christian audience. The nature of Matthew’s writing suggests

The Four Gospels The word ’gospel’ means good news. There are four gospel accounts in the New Testament: Matthew‚ Mark‚ Luke and John. The first three gospels are sometimes called the ’synoptic’ (same view) gospels. This is because they each cover teaching and miracles by Jesus that are also covered in another account. John‚ writing later‚ recounts Jesus’ other words and miracles that have a particular spiritual meaning. All four gospels present Jesus as both the Son of God and son of man. They

The Gospel of Mark starts off a little different than Matthew. Matthew has somewhat of a lengthy introduction‚ but Mark is the exact opposite. Mark’s Gospel doesn’t give a very detailed version of the birth of Christ‚ or the things that preceded it. It gives a very basic intro of John the Baptist and his testimony. There is a very limited account of Jesus’ baptism and the temptation that followed. Matthew’s Gospel gives a very detailed account of these events. Mark’s introduction only has fourteen
