Luke contains the highest concentration of distinct textual-critical questions (three: 11:1-13’s shorter form, 22:19b-20, and 22:43-44/23:34) of any curriculum in this pipeline’s German portfolio.

Coverage confirmation

All 16 doctrines are drawn from the full 24-chapter sweep, distributed across chapters 1, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16, 18, 19, 22, 23, and 24. No major section of the Gospel contributed zero doctrines.
