really ? then tell me why Matthew and Luke are a Plagiarized Version of Mark?

Although it is unknown exactly how the four canonical Gospels were composed, a popular theory among scholars is the two-source hypothesis.

The hypothesis puts the Gospel of Mark being written first and then the authors of the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke using Mark and a hypothetical Q document, in addition to some other sources, to write their individual Gospels. The three Gospels are called the Synoptic Gospels since they are so very similar.

The Q document, also called the Q source, Q Gospel or Q (from German: Quelle, meaning “source”) is a hypothetical written collection of sayings from Jesus (the Beatitudes and the Lord’s Prayer) that is believed, by some scholars, to be the source of the material found in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke but not in the Gospel of Mark.

According to this hypothesis, verbal agreements between Matthew and Luke suggest the non-Markan material must have been taken from a written, not oral, source. Since Q does not contain any Passion story, this has led some researchers to conclude that whoever first wrote the document must have regarded Jesus as a teacher of wisdom and nothing more.

I could be wrong but I don't think the beatitudes and lord's prayer are part of the Q gospel. I had to put most of my books in storage. Burton Mack wrote a book on the Q gospel and the answer is there.
