Featured Article: Synoptic Gospels
The gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke are referred to as the synoptic Gospels because they include many of the same stories, often in a similar sequence and in similar or sometimes identical wording. They stand in contrast to John, whose content is largely distinct. This strong parallelism among the three gospels in content, arrangement, and specific language is widely attributed by Biblical scholars to literary interdependence.
Popular Article: Cactus
A cactus (plural cacti, cactuses, or cactus) is any member of the flowering plant family Cactaceae, native to North and South America and typically characterized by leaves that are reduced in size or ephemeral, enlarged plant stems, and spines that grow from areoles, a structure unique to cacti. Cacti are distinctive and unusual plants, with close to 2,000 species. Most live in desert or semi-desert environments and have many special adaptations in order to survive and thrive in hot, dry conditions.
