Entwodiksyon nan Levanjil Sinoptik yo pa Richard P. Thompson se yon apèsi klè, nan nivo seminè, sou Matye, Mak, ak Lik, ki melanje konesans istorik ak pwofondè teyolojik. Liv la kòmanse ak yon diskisyon ki bay oryantasyon sou nati ak lajè tradisyon Sinoptik la, ansanm ak mistè ki pèsiste sou relasyon literè ki genyen ant levanjil yo.
Apre sa, li mennen lektè yo atravè metòd kritik esansyèl—tankou kritik sous ak redaksyon, kritik fòm—epi li avanse pou eksplore apwòch literè-naratif ak repons lektè. Chapit ki vin apre yo konsidere pèspektiv postkolonyal, liberatè, ak kontèksyèl; yo konpare Levanjil Sinoptik yo ak Ekriti Ebre yo; epi yo eksplore tèm sou fanm, jan de seks, ak pouvwa, ansanm ak anpi, politik, ak rezistans.
Dènye seksyon an, ki konsène Levanjil Sinoptik yo ak kilti modèn, montre jan levanjil yo kontinye enpòtan pou kominote lafwa, chèchè, ak pratikan. Liv sa a, ki fèt ak sipèvizyon entèlijans atifisyèl pa yon ekspè renome, jwenn yon balans ant rigè akademik ak aksè fasil, sa ki fè li tounen yon resous esansyèl pou etidyan, pastè, ak tout moun ki ap chèche yon entwodiksyon reflechi sou Levanjil Sinoptik yo.

Summary in English
Introduction to the Synoptic Gospels by Richard P. Thompson offers a lucid, seminary-level survey of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, blending historical insight with theological depth. The book begins with an orienting discussion of the nature and scope of the Synoptic tradition and the enduring puzzle of their literary relationships.
It then guides readers through essential critical methodologies—source and redaction criticism, form criticism—and advances to literary-narrative and reader-response approaches. Subsequent chapters engage postcolonial, liberationist, and contextual perspectives, compare the Synoptics with Hebrew Scriptures, and explore themes of women, gender, and power alongside empire, politics, and resistance.
A final section on the Synoptics and contemporary culture demonstrates the Gospels’ ongoing relevance for faith communities, scholars, and practitioners. Crafted under AI supervision by a distinguished scholar, this volume balances academic rigor with accessibility, making it an indispensable resource for students, pastors, and all who seek a thoughtful introduction to the Synoptic Gospels.
