Another answer from our community:
Since Matthew is writing for a Jewish audience, this Gospel has a slant which reflects this. He points to a number of Old Testament prophecies to show Jesus as the Jewish Messiah. The conflict between Jesus as the authoritative teacher with God's point of view, interpreting His own law, versus the perversions of the teachers of Jesus' day is also to the forefront. Matthew 23 is a whole chapter of stinging rebukes for such teachers who should have known better.

∙ 8y agoThere are too many differences to describe in a short answer, so I will restrict my answer to the birth and crucifixion of Jesus. Of the four Gospels of the New Testament, only Matthew and Luke have a story of the birth of Jesus. These can be compared:
- In Matthew, the angel appeared to Joseph and told him that a son would be born. After Jesus was born, his family fled to Egypt to escape Herod, who killed all the infants in an attempt to kill Jesus. After the death of Herod, the family returned, but then decided to migrate to Galilee. Wise men brought expensive gifts.
- In Luke, the angel appeared to Mary and told her that she would have a son. After Jesus was born, his family attended the Temple in the normal way and then returned peacefully to their home town of Nazareth in Galilee. Shepherds came twice to the stable to see Jesus.
In the crucifixion narrative, Mark and Luke recorded a great darkness for three hours and the tearing of temple curtain. Matthew embellished this with an earthquake and the dead rising from their graves and walking into the city, with another earthquake to roll away the stone. John mentioned no supernatural event related to the crucifixion.
All the resurrection accounts differ. In Matthew, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary saw the angel who caused the earthquake sitting on the stone. The original Mark's Gospel did not mention any appearances of the resurrected Jesus, and this is absent from our earliest manuscripts. However, an ending was added later to Mark's Gospel to harmonise it as far as possible with those of Matthew and Luke.

What is known as the Book of Gospels?
There are four books in the New Testament known as "the gospels". They are the Gospel according to Matthew, the Gospel according to Mark, the Gospel according to Luke and the Gospel according to John. In Roman Catholic tradition, they are considered the heart of the Bible, because they tell us about the birth, life, mission, death and resurrection of Jesus. In Catholic liturgy, use may sometimes made of a book that contains only the four gospels and not the rest of the bible or even the rest of the New Testament. This book would be called a Book of Gospels.
