The Common Tradition of the Synoptic Gospels: In the Text of the Revised Version (1884) is a scholarly work by Edwin Abbott that explores the similarities and differences between the three synoptic gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The book is based on the Revised Version of the Bible, which was published in 1884 and is considered one of the most accurate translations of the Bible into English. Abbott examines the common themes, language, and structures of the synoptic gospels, as well as the unique contributions of each gospel writer. He also discusses the historical and cultural context in which the gospels were written and how this influenced their content.

Edwin Abbott Abbott (1838-1926) has been ranked as one of the leading scholars and theologians of the Victorian era. He received highest honors in mathematics, classics, and theology at St. John's College, Cambridge, and in 1862 began a brilliant career, during which he served as schoolmaster of some of England's outstanding schools. At the same time he distinguished himself as a scholar, and in 1889 he retired to his studies. Although "Flatland, a literary jeu d'esprit, " has given pleasure to thousands of readers over many generations, Abbott is best known for his scholarly works, especially his "Shakespearian Grammar "and his life of Francis Bacon, and for a number of theological discussions.
