The Fourth Synoptic Gospel: John’s Knowledge of Matthew, Mark, and Luke

In the past, it was widely believed in biblical studies that John wrote his gospel after reading Matthew, Mark, and Luke. However, this view was challenged in the 1930s, and since then, there's been no consensus on the issue. Many scholars now find the problem too complex or unsolvable. Mark Goodacre, though, presents a different perspective in his new book. He combines overlooked data with fresh insights to argue persuasively that John was indeed familiar with the three Synoptic Gospels.
