Similarities in the synoptic gospels about the resurrection include:

  • In all three synoptic gospels women went first to the tomb, early on Sunday morning.
  • In Mark and Luke, the stone was already rolled away when the women arrived; Matthew differs in that the women watched as an angel rolled away the stone
  • Although not included in the earliest manuscripts of Mark, the "Long Ending" (16:9-20) is similar to Matthew and Luke in that Jesus appeared to two of them as they walked. In Matthew, he appeared to two women as they walked, while in Luke, he appeared to two men as they walked.

What are the common oral traditions between the synoptic gospels?

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.

Which one of the four gospels is not synoptic?

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"

What is the different reasons about the synoptic accounts of the ressurrection of Jesus Christ?

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.
