The Synoptic Gospel Problem – Matthean Priority
Episode 125
In Part 1 of our two-part series on the Synoptic Problem, we begin with a big-picture overview of the issue: Why do Matthew, Mark, and Luke share so much in common—and where do they differ? Michael then presents the case for Matthean priority, drawing from D.A. Black’s Why Four Gospels? He outlines a historical sequence where Matthew writes first, Luke follows with a chronological account under Paul’s guidance in Caesarea, and Peter, to support Luke’s Gospel, teaches from both Matthew and Luke in Rome. John Mark, serving as Peter’s interpreter, later compiles these teachings into what becomes the Gospel of Mark.
