How is the account of Jesus on the Road to Emmaus different from the other gospel accounts?

The author of John's Gospel usually took care not to directly contradict Luke, although he aften changed or added to his source gospel. Although John does not contain the account on the road to Emmaus, it could be added to this gospel without affecting its structure or integrity, except that John 21:14 says that the appearace to the disciples at the Sea of Galilee was only the third time he had appeared to the disciples but would have to be the fourth if there was an appearance on the road to Emmaus.
Matthew's Gospel has a very different account of the resurrection appearances, with Jesus appearing only to the women and then to the disciples in a mountain in Galilee. The story of the appearance on the road to Emmaus is inconsistent with this gospel account.
Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. This, the first gospel, originally had no appearances of the risen Jesus. The 'Long Ending' (Mark 16:9-20) was added much later and includes (Mark 16:12-13): "After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country. And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them." This is a good addition, as it could equally be interpreted as Jesus appearing to the two women of Matthew's Gospel or to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, in luke's Gospel.

How many years did Jesus teach before the last supper?
The mission of Jesus that is described in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) appears to have lasted less than one year. In these accounts, Jesus only went to Jerusalem for the Passover on one fateful occasion.In John's Gospel, Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover at least three times, so in this account his mission certainly lasted at least three years.
What is the difference between the synoptic accounts of the Last Supper and that of John's Gospel?
A:In the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), the Last Supper takes place on the evening of the day of the Passover - it is the Jewish Seder feast. John's Gospel moves the chronology (eg John 19:14) so that in his crucifixion, Jesus was the sacrificial lamb of the Passover, and therefore this gospel omits the ritual Last Supper. Apart from mentioning that Jesus and the disciples had their evening meal, John replaces the Last Supper by a ritual in which Jesus washes the feet of the disciples.

Was Mary magdalene in the last supper painting?
No, all the Gospel accounts tell us that Jesus sat down with the twelve disciples. There is no evidence to suggest that any one else was present.
Which gospel gave the first account of the nativity?
Since Matthew's Gospel was written up to twenty years before Luke's Gospel, Matthew's account would have been first. However, we know that the author of Luke's Gospel knew nothing of Matthew's Gospel, and so could not harmonise his account with that of Matthew. This is why the two accounts are so completely different.
Which gospel writer did not include accounts of Jesus birth?
AnswerThe earliest of the New Testament gospels, now known as Mark's Gospel, did not include an account of the birth of Jesus. THese accounts were added by the authors of Matthew and Luke.The author of John knew Luke's account of the birth of Jesus, but did not include it in his gospel. In fact, he suggests that he did not even believe that Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
Was Matthew's Gospel an eyewitness account?
Most biblical scholars believe that the Gospel of Matthew was not written by an eyewitness of Jesus' ministry, but by a second-generation Christian who compiled various sources, including the oral traditions of the early Christian community. It is thought to have been written between 80-90 AD.
What are specific characteristics of each gospel in the bible?
They are four different people giving account to the same thing from different perspectives.
Do the gospel accounts contradict one another?
A:Yes. The gospel accounts do quite frequently contradict each others. Theologians try to harmonise these differences or, in other cases, explain them as the different recollections of different eyewitnesses. Yet scholars now realise that three of the New Testament gospels are based, directly or indirectly, on Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written. So, whenever the other gospels rely on material in Mark's Gospel, the differences are usually more nuanced rather than actual contradictions. Where Mark did not provide a clear guide, the different authors had to write their own stories, which therefore could contradict. From the very beginning of the life of Jesus, we find biblical contradiction. In the Gospel of Matthew, Bethlehem was the home town of Mary and Joseph, who fled from Bethlehem to Egypt for fear of King Herod, beginning to return to their home in Bethlehem after Herod's death but, being warned in a dream, turned aside and travelled to Nazareth instead. In Luke's Gospel, Nazareth was their home town and the family returned peacefully from Bethlehem to Nazareth just forty days afterthe birth of Jesus.Athe the very end of the gospel story, after the resurrection of Jesus, we find biblical contradiction. This occurs because Mark originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror telling no one. It also occurs because each subsequent author was not satisfield with Mark's simple account of a young man telling the women that Jesus was risen. Resurrection appearances were needed but, with no guidance from Mark, the authors of Matthew and Luke wrote quite different accounts. The account in John begins as an elaboration of Luke's account, on which it was based. Much later, the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was added to Mark, to provide it with resurrection appearances. The redactor of Mark's Long Ending was familiar with the other gospel accounts of the resurrection, and made a good effort to harmonise his account with parts of the other gospel accounts.

Why did the other disciples of Jesus not write their gospel accounts of what Jesus did in their presence?
A:Over time, many of the disciples of Jesus were attributed gospels describing events associated with Jesus, either written anonymously or pseudepigraphically. The gospels that we know about included: Gospel of JamesThe Gospel of JohnGospel of JudasThe Gospel of LukeThe Gospel of MarkThe Gospel of MatthewThe Gospel of PeterThe Gospel of PhilipThe Gospel of ThomasIt is well established that none of the disciples actually wrote an eyewitness account, but many of the disciples were honoured with gospels in their names, including Matthew and John and several others.
What is known of the actual world of Jesus?
A:If there is any doubt as to the historicity of the gospels, there is nothing known about the actual world of Jesus. Although there are discrepancies in the gospel stories, the existence of four separate accounts ought to add credence to the gospel account, and Archbishop Peter Carnley said in respect to the empty tomb: "The presence of discrepancies might be a sign of historicity if we had four clearly independent but slightly different versions of the story, if only for the reason that four witnesses are better than one."He then went on to dismiss this: "But, of course, it is now impossible to argue that what we have in the four gospel accounts of the empty tomb are four contemporaneous but independent accounts of the one event. Modern redactional studies of the traditions account for the discrepancies as literary developments at the hand of later redactors of what was originally one report of the empty tomb... There is no suggestion that the tomb was discovered by different witnesses on four different occasions, so it is in fact impossible to argue that the discrepancies were introduced by different witnesses of the one event; rather, they can be explained as four different redactions for apologetic and kerygmatic reasons of a single story originating from one source."We now know that this one source was the Gospel of Mark, but we do not know where its anonymous author obtained his material. There is therefore considerable doubt about much or all of the gospel account and, until this is resolved, we can not say we know anything real about the actual world of Jesus.
