Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Paul by David Oliver Smith

Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Paul by David Oliver Smith

Description: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Paul takes you on a journey through the Synoptic Gospels and the Epistles providing a new solution to a literary puzzle that has vexed biblical scholars for over two-hundred years--The Synoptic Problem. When the Synoptic evangelists, Matthew, Mark, and Luke sat down to write their gospels did they have copies of some of the epistles? This book examines the Synoptic Gospels, Hebrews, and Paul's Epistles finding many intriguing similarities, suggesting that the Synoptic evangelists used extensive parts of the epistles to weave into their stories of the ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. David Oliver Smith then compares these epistle-based passages to the theoretical lost gospel Q and finds that a large portion of what many New Testament scholars consider to be contained in Q may have its inspiration in the Epistles. About the Contributor(s): David Oliver Smith has dedicated his retirement years to applying his training in legal research to the study of the New Testament and its puzzles. He is a member of the State Bar of Texas and has a BA from the University of Colorado and a JD from Duke University. He has published several articles on the law of taxation in legal periodicals.
