The Parallel Gospels And Reference Passages Matthew Mark Luke And John

A DISCIPLE IN THE GARDEN of Gethsemane cuts off the ear of the high priest's servant according to all four Gospels. But only John tells us the servant's name, and that it was Peter who wielded the sword. And only Luke tells us that Jesus healed the wound. This book allows you to see all of this at a glance.THE FOUR GOSPELS are presented here in parallel columns, in roughly chronological order, with corresponding passages side by side. Among the differences that set this work apart from others are its use of the World English Bible, its copyright-free status, and its readable arrangement of the text.THE WORLD ENGLISH BIBLE, which provides the Gospel texts used in this book, is a copyright-free modern English translation.Editor DAVID A. REED served for a decade as a contributing editor of Dr. Walter Martin's Christian Research Journal and has taught at Spurgeon's annual School of Theology at London's Metropolitan Tabernacle. He has authored twenty books on Bible topics. Reed is pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church in New Bedford, Massachusetts.

This book is a detailed matching of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, to be used by everyone who desires to have a deeper knowledge of the teachings of Jesus Christ.

A synopsis is a tool which displays different passages of a text side by side for comparison. This is most commonly done with the four Gospels of the New Testament because of their similar material, but it could reasonably be done with any text that has similar passages, such as the Old Testament historical narratives. The synopsis you presently hold contains the four Gospels of the New Testament. It is different from comparing parallel versions, such as one English translation to another, because all of the passages displayed in this synopsis are from the same version, the NET Bible. It is different from a harmony because the passages are not reorganized into one story; each Gospel in a synopsis is separate from the others and can be read by itself or in comparison with the others. This parallel arrangement enables fruitful comparison of the Gospels to each other so each may be understood well on its own in light of the others.
