Primary source on Jesus are the Four Gospels: • Matthew’s Gospel is the most Jewish – emphasizing Jesus as king & judge of Israel, fulfilling Old Testament prophecy with great power and authority. Features long discourses such as Sermon on the Mount (chs. 5– 7), parables of the kingdom (13), and criticism of scribes & Pharisees. • Mark’s Gospel is the shortest, full of action, and stressing the miraculous power of Jesus more than his words. Mark may have been writing with Roman readers in mind, and may be writing the account according to Peter, due to Mark’s close association with Peter.

Primary source on Jesus are the Four Gospels: • Luke’s Gospel, with highly polished Greek, likely written to a Greek/Gentile audience, emphasizing forgiveness, love, and the universal availability of salvation. Many parables unique to Luke (i. e. , the Prodigal Son), and has most emphasis on women, prayer, hope, Holy Spirit, and Nativity of Jesus. • John Gospel is the most theological, concerned more with the Jesus as the eternal Son of God and Messiah/Christ than with places and events. John gives a more intimate picture of Jesus, emphasizing his relationship to the Father, to the Twelve, and others. • ALSO, some details in Acts and Pauline Epistles.
