The book of Luke.
The gospel of John is not part of the Synoptic Gospels.The gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are referred to as the Synoptic Gospels.
Luke
A:John's Gospel is certainly quite different to the synoptic gospels. It is almost completely independent of Mark's Gospel, from which scholars say that Matthew and Luke were copied. However, it is not really independent, as it was loosely based on Luke, with a small amount of material taken direct from Mark. Being further removed from Mark, and having been written with somewhat less concern compared with Matthew and Luke for following the source as closely as possible, John's Gospel is relatively independent of the Synoptic Gospels.
The author of the Gospel of Luke was a Greek physician.
John H. Sieber has written: 'A redactional analysis of the synoptic gospels with regard to the question of the sources of the gospel according to Thomas'
A:Matthew, Mark and Luke are known as synoptic gospels because they are moderately similar in content. We now know that this comes about because the authors of Matthew and Luke copied much of the content of Mark, often in exactly the same words in the Greek language, as a parallel reading in Greek will show. John's Gospel was not copied from Mark, like the others, but is loosely based on Luke. Being one step removed from the original, and having been written by an author somewhat less concerned with preserving the original content, John differs quite substantially from the others, especially Matthew. For this reason, it is not considered a 'synoptic gospel'.
Acts is not one of the Synoptic Gospels - they are Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Acts can be considered a follow-on or sequel to Luke, since they were written to the same person and evidently by the same author. But Acts is not a Gospel.
The Synoptic Theory relates to the gospel chapters of the new testament of the bible. It states that Matthew and Luke used both Mark and a person named Q as their sources.
He was a doctor.
Saint John (he wrote the gospel of john in the bible) is the evangelist who was not part of the synoptic writers. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke were known as the synoptic writers because they had many of the same stories in their gospels.
A:The first synoptic gospel (Matthew, Mark and Luke) to be written was Mark's Gospel, but it was originally anonymous. Papias is believed to have attributed this gospel to the apostle Mark later in the second century, but scholars say there is no good reason to support that attribution. We do not know who actually wrote Mark, but it is believed to have been written approximately 70 CE, so the author would have been alive at this time.Mark was followed by Matthew and Luke, each written anonymously and later attributed by the second-century Church Fathers to the apostle whose name it now bears.
According to Colossians 4:14 ("Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you."), Luke the companion of Paul was a physician. This information should be treated with caution, as a majority of critical scholars believe that Colossians was not really written by Paul, but was written pseudepigraphically in the 70s of the first century - probably by someone who had never met Luke.According to a tradition originating later in the second century, the gospel now known as Luke's Gospel was written by Luke, as was Acts of the Apostles, according to the same tradition. However, the books were originally anonymous and were probably not written by Luke.In summary: Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles were probably not really written by Luke, but even if they were, Luke may not have been a physician. However, these are the two books intended by the question.
