1 | Why is the bk of John between Luke/John | NT general Archive 1 | BLoar | 11840 | ||
My understanding has been that Matthew, Mark, and Luke have similar accounts of Jesus' life. They are therefore called the parallel gospels. John's gospel has many events that aren't in the first three. Some examples are the wedding at Cana, the story of Phillip and Nathanael, the account of Nicodemus, the woman at the well, etc. I think the idea was to put the three together that were similar. John's gospel is also considered, by some people, to be a little harder to understand without having first read the other three, which would explain why the parallel gospels come first. | ||||||
