Q

Solutions to the Synoptic Problem

A

Oral tradition: The apostles and early leaders of the church preached about the works and teachings of Jesus in a fixed form.
Why it could work: Militant memorization always accurate. By the time they were written down they were memorized in detail.
Problems: Doesn’t account for differences between the gospels
Markan priority: Mark is the oldest and is a prototype for the other Gospels.
Problem: There is a identical language that is not in Mark.
Why is works: Though Matt and Luke are different from each other, Mark shares up to 93% with them
Q doc theory: The 2 theory. The need for a 2nd source of sayings also known as Q.
Why it works: Answers the question regarding matching verbiage.
Problem: The “Q” source is yet to be found anywhere
Matthean priority: Introduced by Augustine, based on the canonical order of the Bible.
Why it works: The nearly unanimous testimony of the church until the 19th century was that Matthew was the 1st. Hard to ignore this evidence and see Luke 1.
Problem: If mark is first why does Matthew and Luke have their own matching material
