Chronologically speaking, it is not possible to sequentially arrange the events in the life of Christ in any definitive way;none of the New Testament Gospels follows an overtly chronological pattern. Accordingly, the arrangement here followsa geographic order, basically proceeding from north to south on the map. Because the Gospel of Matthew mostfrequently contains information cited here, and because it is the most geographically particularistic Gospel, synopticpassages are keyed to the book of Matthew, except where they are unattested there or where more pertinentinformation about the event cited is available in another Gospel.
