We have been comparing The Gospel of Luke with the Gospels of Matthew and Mark. Many of the parables are the same between the three Gospels. In addition, the accounting for the plot to kill Jesus, the passover meal, death, burial and resurrection are also the same. Our bible study noted the follow differences in the story as related by Luke:
Luke 23:6-12 relates how Pilate, upon hearing the Jesus was a man from Galilee, turned Jesus over to Herod's district. Herod questioned Jesus, mocked him, dressed him in elegant clothing and sent him back to Pilate. This story is not relayed in Matthew and Mark.
Luke 23:46 At Jesus' death, Jesus said "Father, into your hands I entrust my life".
This varies from the Matthew and Mark quote of "My God, My God, why have you left me" or "My God, my God, why have you foresaken me". Luke's version appears that Jesus is accepting and ready to give his life into His Father's hands. The other two Gospels' version appears that Jesus feels alone and forgotten.
