Please distinguish the terms "vow", "oath", "swear" and "pledge." Some of these are interchangeable and some are referred to in the bible as totally different from each other.

I wanted to ask you a question about the testaments. Is the

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?
