The three synoptics are Matthew, Mark, and Luke,
in these three books there are some similarities and some differences. One
similarity is that the crucifixion and resurrection are in all three of these books;
they each tell how Jesus tells about the end times and His death. Another similarity
is that there are lots of parables and healing in these books, mostly about
healing demon possessed people and healing people who are sick. A difference is
that each book was written with a different theme. Matthews’s theme was Jesus
is the messiah and king, Mark's was Jesus is the messiah and servant and Luke’s
theme is Jesus is the Earth's Savior. John the Baptist was also in all three of
these books, it talked about him baptizing people and also his death. Another difference
is that Matthew wrote to the Jews, Mark wrote to the Romans, and Luke wrote to
the Gentiles. Each of these stories all have different stories in them but they
have a lot of similarities.
