Similarities in the synoptic gospels about the resurrection include:
A:Common oral traditions would be a useful explanation for what is known as the 'Synoptic Problem', a problem of the surprising similarities among the synoptic gospels, if those traditions exist. However, a parallel reading of the three synoptic gospels, in the original Greek language, shows that when they agree, the similarities are too great and they often use exactly the same words in the Greek language. Clearly, there is a literary dependency among the synoptic gospels, and it can not be explained by oral sources. The explanation for this is that Matthewand Luke were actually based on Mark, but also relied on the hypothetical 'Q' document for further sayings material attributed to Jesus. There is no evidence of common oral traditions.
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.

Yes.
A:Among the New Testament gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke are known as synoptic ('seen with the same eye') gospels, because when laid sise by side in the original Greek language and seen with the same eye, it can be shown that two of these gospels must have been based on the third. The original of these gospels is now known to have been Mark's Gospel. On the other hand, when John's Gospel is laid alongside the others, its dependence is not immediately apparent. Because John was more loosely based on Luke and, to a lesser extent, Mark, there are few similarities in the text and even the storyline often differs. It is therefore not a synoptic gospel.The Gospel of John is not one of the "synoptic gospels"
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.
One must remember that many of the bible accounts of the resurrection of Christ were written well after the event, causing the writers of the gospels to write what they saw or were told of the event. The book of Luke contains one of the most accurate accounts of the resurrection. One must remember that not all of the gospels can give an accurate account of Christ resurrection. Let it suffice that the authors did the best they could about the event. All of the gospels cumulate in this actual event.
The term "synoptic gospels" comes from Greek. The word "synoptic" is derived from the Greek words "syn" (together) and "opsis" (seeing), referring to the fact that the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke present a similar view of Jesus' life and teachings.
The two source hypothesis is an explanation for the synoptic problem, the pattern of similarities and the differences between the three gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. It emerged in the 19th century.
Matthew, Mark and Luke are referred to as the 'synoptic gospels' in that they tell of similar stories and in similar sequences.
A:All the New Testament gospels were originally anonymous, which means that in spite of the best efforts of the second-century Church Fathers we do not know who any of the authors really were. The synoptic gospels were attributed to Matthew, Mark and Luke. The fourth gospel was attributed to the disciple John, although modern Bible scholars say that none of the gospels could have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed. For convenience, scholars continue to use these names for the authors of the gospels, so John did not write a synoptic gospel.
They're usually referred to as the Gospels. Sometimes, in academia, they're called the "Synoptic Gospels."
