Sources Of The Synoptic Gospels

""Sources of the Synoptic Gospels"" is a scholarly work by Carl S. Patton that explores the origins and influences behind the three synoptic gospels of the New Testament: Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The book delves into the question of how these three gospels, which share many similarities in content and structure, came to be written and what sources the authors drew upon. Patton examines the theories and evidence surrounding the use of written sources, oral traditions, and other literary and historical influences that may have contributed to the creation of the synoptic gospels. The book is aimed at scholars and students of biblical studies, as well as anyone interested in the history and development of the Christian scriptures.The Purpose Of This Study Is Twofold: First, To Give Some Account Of The Investigations Recently Made In The Synoptic Problem, And The Present Status Of Scholarly Opinion Concerning It; Secondly, Upon The Basis Of Such Established Results, To Push The Inquiry Into Certain Items A Step Farther.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
