Best Answer

Matthew's Gospel contains around 600 of the 666 verses from Mark's Gospel and was written in the same order as Mark. In this respect, the Gospel of Matthew agrees with Luke. Some sayings material was inserted into Matthew at various points, from the hypothetical 'Q' document, but not necessarily at the same points as Luke, when it uses the same material form Q.

As far as the author of Matthew could establish, the Gospel was written in chronological order.

Answer

No. Luke's is the only Gospel meant to present a historical work "in order" (Luke 1:3). Most of his stories fall in chronological sequence.

Is the New Testament in chronological order?

AnswerThe books of the New Testament are not entirely in chronological order. The gospels are placed first, although some of the epistles were written earlier. Mark's Gospel is now known to have been the first gospel written, but is placed second. Paul's epistles are placed in order by size, from longest to shortest (with one exception) rather than by date written. Hebrews follows the Pauline epistles, because it was once thought to have been written by Paul. The other non-Pauline epistles are also placed in order by size.The chronological order of events differs a little among the three synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), but is very different in John's Gospel. Even though each gospel presents events as if in chronological order, this is clearly not the case.

Did Luke wrote a chronological sequence of events in his Gospel?

A:Scholars say that the author of Matthew copied much of his material from Mark's Gospel, following the same chronological order as that Gospel. He also added sayings from the hypothetical 'Q' document, following the same sequence as Q, but had no knowledge of whether Q was itself in chronological order. The author also added material from unknown sources and from the Old Testament. Matthew will therefore be in correct chronological order if Mark is, subject to the additional material taken from 'Q'. However, it can be demonstrated that Mark is based on a number of 'chiastic structures', that require artificial sequences that could never reflect the order of events in real life.
