Gospels

The emphasis of the following chart is on where Jesus went and what he did rather than on what he said since he could have and probably did say the same thing on many different occasions. The first column presents all of Matthew. The second column presents Luke down to Luke 6:12. At this point Luke jumps back to the sermon on the mount. The third column presents the remainder of Luke. The fourth column presents all of John. Mark follows Luke's order (more or less) but has Matthews wording. It is therefore interwoven with Matthew. I have marked those parts of Matthew that are also in Mark 1:1 - 4:34 with an asterisk. and those parts of Matthew that are also in Mark 4:35 - end with a double asterisk. Parts appearing in Mark but not Matthew are in parenthesis.

(Matthew says whoever humbles himself like this child (same child that was cured of epilepsy?) is the greatest) whoever welcomes a little child like this welcomes me. (Mark adds whoever isn't against us is for us) if anyone causes one of these little ones to sin it would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck. better to enter life crippled than to be whole and cast into hell (Mark adds everyone will be salted with fire. if salt loses its saltiness how will it be salted again? have salt within yourselves and be at peace)		argument started about who was greatest.

(Matthew adds if so then it is better not to marry. not all can accept this but the one who can should). little children brought to him. The kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. (Mark adds anyone who will not receive the kingdom like a little child will never enter it. Rich young man asks 'what good thing must I do to get eternal life'. Only God is good. Told to sell all his possessions. (Mark says his face fell) easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. With God all things are possible. Disciples said we have left all. You will receive 100 times as much is this age and in the next eternal life. But many who are first will be last.		Set his face for Jerusalem. (on border between Galilee and Samaria as he entered a village, healed 10 lepers?) Samaritan village does not we[come him. shall we call fire down as Elijah did? let the dead bury the dead.

**(Marks adds they arrived again in Jerusalem) teaching (Mark says walking) in the temple courts. Chief priests and elders (Mark adds teachers of the law) ask by whose authority he did these things. John baptism from heaven or men? (Matthew adds parable of 2 sons), vineyard tenants/Parable of the Wicked Husbandmen/stone rejected by builders,		20 by whose authority? vineyard tenants. stone rejected by builders. right to pay taxes? 7 brothers had one woman. whose son is the Christ?	Greeks want to see him. 'unless a grain dies it abides alone'. 'Father glorify your name'. 'the son of man must be lifted up'. 'trust the light while you have it so you may become sons of the light'. Jesus hid himself from them.
		21 widows offering.
(Matthew adds the wedding banquet). Pharisees went out and sent back their disciples and Herodians. paying taxes? (Matthew says that same day) Sadducees ask about 7 brothers having one woman. Pharisees ask what is the greatest commandment? (Mark adds that the man said you are right. Jesus said you are not far from the kingdom of God. no one dared ask him any more questions) (Matthew say while the Pharisees were gathered together he asked them whose son is the Christ) Why do the teachers of the law say that the Christ is the son of David?

**24 left temple and was walking away. (Mark says as he was leaving the temple) Disciples (Mark says one disciple) called his attention to the buildings. not one stone left atop another.

Wars, earthquakes, famines are the beginning of Birth pains. This gospel will be preached then the end will come. Abomination of desolation. Woe to those with child. pray that your flight be not in winter (Matthew adds or on the Sabbath) If the Lord had not cut short those days for the sake of the elect (Mark adds whom he has choses) no one would survive. False Christs and False Prophets will arise (Mark adds so be on your guard) (Matthew adds as lightening from the east is visible in the west so will be the coming of the Son of Man) He will send his angels (Matthew adds with a trumpet call) and gather his elect. lesson of the fig tree. about that day and hour only the father knows.		some disciples remarked how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts to God. not one stone will be left atop another. (the Roman soldiers that eventually toppled the stones were reportedly looking for gold (gifts?) between the stones) sign that it is about to take place? each day at temple. each night at mount of olives.
**(Mark just says be on your guard, be alert. You do not know when that time comes. Its like a man going away and leaving his servants in charge. Keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will return so don't let him catch you sleeping. I say to everyone 'watch')
(Matthew says As it was in the days of Noah Therefore keep watch because you do not know when your Lord will come. If the owner knew when the thief was coming he would have kept watch and not let him break in. who is that faithful and wise servant that the master has put in charge. The master will come on a day he doesn't expect. If he finds him drunk then he will cut him to pieces)
