Talk:Synoptic problem

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please add more information on what Lessing's ur-gospel theory was. There is no info in wikipedia on those topics.  :)

[edit] Other takes on "synoptic problem"

Evangelical Christians I have encountered have a totally different concept of the synoptic problem than the higher criticism approach of the article. It seems to me that "synoptic problem" means the mental and linguistic gymnastics taken to reconcile descrepancies between the gospels in such a way to maintain their Biblical inerrancy. I wonder if someone could comment on that in the article? El charangista 00:25, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

How exactly does the synoptic problem/hypotheses reconcile discrepancies between the gospel accounts? My impression was that the whole synoptic approach is fairly "historico-critical" and (generally speaking) tends to be either opposed or deemed fairly irrelevant by the evangelical side of Christianity Leon 06:38, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
