saving work of God in his son Jesus Christ. The writers of the four gospels introduced a new literary category into literature. The gospels are not exactly biographies‚ because apart from certain events surrounding Jesus’ birth‚ (Matt. 1-2; Luke 1-2) and one from Jesus’ youth (Luke 2:41-52)‚ they record only the last two or three years of Jesus’ life. Moreover‚ the material included is not written as an objective historical survey of Jesus’ ministry. The gospels present Jesus in such a way that the reader
