Abstract
A problem that has long captured the critical attention of New Testament scholars has been the so-called Synoptic problem, which seeks to identify and explain the literary relationships that exist among the first three Gospels. A similar and no less vexing problem is that of the literary relationship between the Synoptics and the Gospel of John. Of the three Synoptics, Mark offers perhaps the most striking parallels with the Fourth Gospel and therefore the strongest evidence of literary dependence on the part of John. Matthew, on the other hand, offers the fewest parallels and hence the least compelling evidence for such a dependency.2But Luke, in many ways, offers the most interesting parallels, and it is partly for this reason that his Gospel has been chosen for special study in this paper.
