Lesson 6- questions from bible literature


Questions from Bible Literature


Lesson 6

What are the Gospels?

At first glance, the New Testament Gospels seem strange and difficult. Each tells the story of Jesus’ life, but only half of each Gospel is narrative in form. The rest of the material is what we might call “discourse” — speeches, parables, theological dialogues and debates, satire, and proverbs

                                             

What are they about?

A gospel is an account that describes the life of Jesus. The most widely known examples are the four canonical gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, but the term is also used to refer to the apocryphal gospels, the non-canonical gospels, the Jewish-Christian gospels and the Gnosti Gospels

 

Who wrote them?

Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
