A:The word 'synoptic' is derived from the Greek language (synoptikos) and means 'with the same eye'. It was used for the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) because when lain in parallel and read synoptically in the original Greek language, it becomes clear that much of the material in two of the gospels, Matthew and Luke, was copied from the Gospel of Mark.
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.
