Q (from the German word Quelle/Source)
is technically defined as the material that Luke and Matthew have in
common that is not found in Mark. With few exceptions
this material turns out to be teachings or saying of Jesus, leading
many scholars to conclude that Luke and Matthew were following a written
source, perhaps the earliest collection of the Teachings of Rabbi Yeshua,
put together in Palestine before 50 C.E.

Assignment:
As you carefully work through this material note the content of individual passages, differences in style, and the different contexts and distribution of this material in Luke and Matthew. You should mark this material in your Bible in both Luke and Matthew using some kind of color code system of your choice. Then work through Throckmorton's Gospel Parallels and mark in a similar fashion the Q material so that it easily stands out. Make notes on the major differences you see as you compare the passages side by side in Throckmorton.
