Why didn't the Devil deceive Adam and Eve to eat from the Tree of Life also? And why was the Tree of Life in the garden at all? I was trying to understand why in a garden where food was abundant the two trees of greatest importance to their well-being were there for them, and no warning was given to them about the Devil and his lies. Yet they only ate from the Tree of Knowledge. It would seem they were not even interested in the Tree of Life. They could have eaten of the Tree of Life first and then the tree of knowledge. After they sinned then God thought about barring the way to the Tree of Life, why then? and why not before?
I am searching for lessons on the synoptic gospels. I hope to answer the following questions:

 
1.  Why are three so similar and John is not?
2.  What specific stories are told in Matthew, Luke and Mark and how are they similar and how are they different?
3.  Why are Matthew, Mark and Luke referred to as the synoptic gospels?
 
Can you provide some resources to answer my questions?

In Matthew 5-7, is Jesus introducing the Jews to the future kingdom of heaven on earth? And if that's the case, are the acts indicated in Matthew 5:29,30 the result of Matthew 5:28 and something believer's must physically carry out while in the future kingdom in order to enter into his final resting place?
