Excerpt from Analysis of the Four Parallel Gospels HE text of the four Gospels, as extracted in the following pages, has been entirely drawn from the parallel gospels: a work compiled as far back as the year 1829, but published at the same period as the present analysis. No comment has been here introduced which is not based on the text of those Gospels. As the careful student will insist on minutely examining those extracts with the originals from which they have been derived he will feel, if not the Necessity, at least the increased Facility, which will be obtained by laying that work before him when examining the present Epitome of it since he will there see the entire contents of the four Gospels brought into the same pages, and side by side with the undisturbed text of St. Matthew instead of being obliged to search out the several parallel Passages of each Evangelist, whether identical or varied, through the chapters of the Testament in ordinary use. A short summary of all that has descended to us from the Fathers of the second century, material to the date or authorship of the Gospels, is premised.
