What does the Bible say about the differences in the Gospels?

The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are referred to as the synoptic Gospels due to their similarities, while John presents a more doctrinal perspective. The differences between these accounts reflect the distinct experiences and insights of the individual authors rather than contradictions. For instance, Matthew and John, who were both eyewitnesses, highlight events they personally witnessed, while Mark and Luke, who were not present during the events of Christ’s ministry, wrote based on the Holy Spirit's inspiration, therefore sharing the same truths from different viewpoints.
