Who are what group or people were the gospels written for?
Matthew was written primarily for the Jews. Luke was written for the believing Romans or non-Jews. John was written for gnostics--people who believed more in knowledge and mysticism. Mark was probably the earliest Gospel written, and written for the followers of Jesus.
Which gospel was written for the gentiles?
John's Gospel was written for what is now called the Johannine community. Luke's gospel also seems to have been written for a limited community, although it may also have been intended to demonstrate to outsiders, such as the Roman authorities, the antiquity and virtues of Christianity. Some believe that Matthew's Gospel was written for a Jewish community, and if so this would have been a diaspora community. Mark's Gospel shows no indication of having been intended for a limited community, and in fact this gospel was known to the authors of all the other New Testament gospels - Matthew, Luke and John. So, Mark was the most universal of the gospels.

When was the book of Matthew mark Luke and john written?

What do you think about the written report that we have from the eyewitnesses of Jesus?
A:Unfortunately there is no written report by any eyewitness to the life of Jesus anywhere in the Bible or elsewhere. Even conservative Christians concede that the Gospels of Mark and Luke were not written by eyewitnesses. Scholars say that all the New Testament gospels were written anonymously and that they were not attributed to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John until later in the second century. They say that the Gospels of Matthew and John were unlikely to have been written by the disciples of those names, so that even these gospels were not eyewitness accounts. The gospels are certainly accounts about Jesus, whether reliable or otherwise, but they were not written by eyewitnesses or even by some who knew eyewitnesses.

If a gospel was written by a gentile how would that affect the gospel?
A:Since all the New Testament gospels were actually written anonymously we can not be sure, but it seems most likely that the authors were all gentiles. When the Church Fathers sought, in the course ofthe second century, to establish who probably wrote the four gospels, they eventually assigned two of them to gentiles and two to Jewish disciples mentioned in the gospels. However, modern New Testament scholars say that none of the gospels could really have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed. They were written long after the time attributed to Jesus and were not based on direct witness accounts. By reading the gospels in the original Greek language, scholars say that Matthew and Luke were actually based on Mark, with, for example, Matthew containing some 90 per cent of the verses in Mark. Matthew and Luke also share a second source for sayings material attributed to Jesus: the hypothetical 'Q' document. It has also been established that John's Gospel was loosely based on Luke, with some material taken direct from Mark. Various suggestions have been made as to where the author of Mark obtained the material for his gospel, but little of this is certain at this stage.Based on what we now know, the gospels that have come down to us today have been affected by being written by gentiles.
