Summary: An Excellent Resource for Studying the Synoptic Gospels
Review: This is a handy reference for studing the related texts in Matthew and Luke. It pressuposes the idea of Q, which is a theoretical common source used by Matthew and Luke. It also gives other parallels from Hellenisitic sources and early Christian documents. It includes both original languages(mostly Greek)and English. It also includes brief notes giving the differing opinions of scholars on the relationship of Q to each parallel. Since it deals mostly with primary source materials, it is useful for anyone studying the Gospels. The layout is extremely helpful for studying various forms of parables and pericopes.
