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.
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.
Matthew, Mark, and Luke are called synoptic gospels because they are from the same point of view.John is the four gospel, written to fill in for the others and to help those find Jesus who did not know him in person.
The books were not arranged in the order of when written but according to subject matter. The first five books are about Jesus life and His activities preaching the good news of the kingdom along with Acts being about what those first four books led to, that is the activities of the apostles and the forming of congregations by the preaching work Jesus commanded them to do at Matthew 28:19-20. The next 21 books were of the inner workings of the congregations. Last the book of revelation which talks of the future out come of God's people and the world.
A:All the New Testament gospels were originally anonymous, so we do not really know who wrote any of them. Later in the second century, the early Church Fathers attributed the gospels to the apostles whose names they now bear. On the basis of these attributions, the Gospels of Mark and Luke were written by Gentiles. Modern scholars say that the second-century attributions are not likely to have been well-founded..
