Synoptic Problem

Here we are going to endeavor to present a commentary on the Gospel of Mark, which we pray is the fruitful beginning of many such projects. The reason we have chosen to present Mark before Matthew is not because we believe it was penned first, but because it shares most of its accounts with Matthew and Luke. By presenting Mark’s comparatively concise gospel first, we hope to establish a foundation for future commentaries while also avoiding any unnecessary repetition.
