Luke, John, Matt, Mark.

p.s. you've got to have better things to do with your time than manually enter all four gospels into Wordle.

Nice. Next time you could do the same with Apocrypha gospels, heehehehehe.

I mixed Matthew and Luke up, but "immediately" gave Mark away and "Jews" gave John away.

Now that the prize has been won, do you have a link to the actual Wordle page for these?

woot woot!

Ok, the clues I found were:

Luke - "people" "children" "crowd" "father" - reminds me of all the people stories which Luke shares.

John - "come" "world" "believe" and "know" - seems to be the main deal with John :)

Mark - "immediately!!!" The author seems so excited! "Immediately" is all over the place in Mark. Sounds like a kid telling a story in one big run-on sentence. "And then this happened, and then this...."

Matthew - "Kingdom" and "heaven" - key words for Matthew's Jewish audience.

Thanks for the gifts - totally great. Love all the authors! I will shoot an email off to you later today. Thanks again.

I'd be willing to send you a breviary as a consolation prize. ;)

Congrats Andrea, you figured it out (and beat Blake's correct answer by a little over an hour). Maybe you can share how you figured it out?

By the way...if you could send an email to mark (at) missio-dei.com with your address and your pick for the book you want to receive, I'll get those to you right away.

I'll play. Although I'm not that familiar with the NRSV, so I'll use that for my excuse if I don't get it right.
First-John
Second-Matthew
Third-Mark
Fourth-Luke

Even though JM doesn't do things like this often, I think that using these Wordle could be a neat tool for meditating on the each Gospel writer's words. Thanks for making a game out of it.
