A:Each gospel is different. Mark's Gospel is the original, on which the other New Testament gospels were based, but is also the shortest. Whenever one gospel is more comprehensive in its coverage of an event or time in the life of Jesus, it almost invariably provides a completely different story that is entirely unknown to the other evangelists. Whether these are complementary or contradictory accounts is sometimes a matter of judgement.

Only Matthew's Gospel and Luke's Gospel contain nativity accounts. Matthew contains a nativity account of some 31 verses, in which parallels are drawn between Jesus and Moses. Luke contains a nativity account of over 40 verses, plus a preamble that describes the birth of John the Baptist. Neither gospels covers events in the other gospel.

The passion and resurrection stories in Matthew's Gospel can not be compared at all with those in Luke and John. Luke devotes a chapter of 52 verses to the resurrection of Jesus, during which Jesus appeared to the two on the road to Emmaeus and then once at a meal in Jerusalem, after which he took them out towards Bethany, where he ascended bodily to heaven. These events all took place within the space of one day. John's story of the resurrection of Jesus is only slightly longer, at 56 verses, but occupies a much longer period of time and includes two visits to the disciples at a meal, the story of 'doubting Thomas' and an appearance to the disciples in Galilee.
