A:No. Much of Luke's Gospel was copied from Mark's Gospel, as can readily be seen when the two gospels are read in parallel in the original Greek language. Much of this content uses exactly the same words, but in other cases there are minor embellishments and changes. Other material was copied from the hypothetical 'Q' document, and the same material can also be found in Matthew's Gospel, the author of which also relied on Mark and Q. Answer:

Luke contains 50 percent of the substance of Mark's verses, while Matthew contains a full 90 percent of Mark.
