Bible Question: I find that after Matthew is Mark. It seems to say the same events that I hvae read in Matthew. Why is it repeating the same story? |
Bible Answer: Matthew, Mark, luke, and John are also known as the gossiples. the reason why they appear to repeat eachother in a way is because each book was written by the name of the apostle that gave it that name during Jesus life. what your seeing is 4 different accounts of mostly the same events, but each account has something new that one of the other authers might have not written down. These accounts also help strengthen the fact that Jesus did exist because they are written by for different people that lived while Jesus was alive |
