... There are four portraits of Jesus in question of being harmonized into one greater piece. ... I believe that these gospels, these four portraits of Jesus can and should be harmonized. ... Mark interprets Jesus by stressing death and suffering. When Jesus is crucified in Mark, he is stripped of his clothing and given a purple cloak and crown of twisted thorns. The soldiers mock Jesus and then lead him to be crucified. The soldiers offered him wine that was mixed with myrrh, a liquid used for anointing and embalming, but Jesus refused. They inscribed “The King of Jesus” as the charge against him, crucified next to him were two bandits. In Mark, Jesus cries out “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Someone gives Jesus a sponge to drink from and he then gave a loud cry and took his last breath. ... Matthew shows Jesus as a teacher and a preacher, showing similarity to Mark. When Jesus was crucified in Matthew, he was also give the royal robes and mocked. However, in Matthew, Jesus was beaten and he tasted the wine that was offered to him.
