Matthew, Mark, & Luke are known as the synoptic gospels, because there are so many similar or near-identical descriptions of events in them. It is generally thought that Mark was the first to be written down. Furthermore, it is widely believed Mark was a teenager who hung out with Jesus & the disciples. The description of a person escaping from the arrest at the Garden of Gesthemene is thought to be the author himself.

The Gospel of John is different, to say the least. It begins with a mystical description of the Word, and th eWord was God, and was with God. It includes a number of events, such as the wedding at Canaa, that do not appear elsewhere.

What if some person, fancying themselves a biographer, attempted to write a single book about Jesus, based on all four gospels? We will find out because it’s been done. By us.
