Do you know if there are any Evangelion-Mark readings not found in Luke which are also not found in Mattthew? Or are all known Evangelion-Mark vs. Luke readings also Evangelion-Mark-Matthew vs. Luke readings?

Best,

Yes, there are some examples of this. One example is 5:12, which corresponds to Mark 1:40 and Matthew 8:2. Mark, the Evangelion, and Matthew all have "a leprous man" (λεπρὸς), whereas Luke has "a man full of leprosy" (ἀνὴρ πλήρης λέπρας). In the same verse, Matthew and Luke have the word master/lord (Κύριε), which is missing from Mark and the Evangelion. This means that this verse has both a Mark-Evangelion-Matthew vs. Luke reading and a Mark-Evangelion vs. Matthew-Luke reading.

A second example is 5:34, which corresponds to Mark 2:19a. Matthew 9:15 corresponds to Mark 2:19b-2:20 and Luke 5:35, but the gospel of Matthew has no parallel to Evangelion 5:34. In both Mark and the Evangelion, the wedding attendants are the main actors of the situation, while in Luke, they are the passive recipients of compulsion. Thus, this is a Mark-Evangelion vs. Luke reading.

A third example is 6:1, which corresponds to Mark 2:23 and Matthew 12:1. Both the gospels of Matthew and Luke mention the disciples eating, which is absent from both the gospel of Mark and the Evangelion. This is a Mark-Evangelion vs. Matthew-Luke reading.

A fourth example is a few verses later in 6:5, which corresponds to Mark 2:28 and Matthew 12:8. The gospel of Mark and the Evangelion have the word even (καὶ) here, while the word is absent in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. This is another Mark-Evangelion vs. Matthew-Luke reading.

A fifth example is 9:19, which corresponds to Mark 9:19 and Matthew 17:17. Both the gospels of Matthew and Luke have the word perverse (διεστραμμένη) here, which is absent from the gospel of Mark and the Evangelion. This is another Mark-Evangelion vs. Matthew-Luke reading.

A sixth example is 21:17, 19, which corresponds to Mark 13:13 and Matthew 24:9, 13. In the gospel of Mark and the Evangelion, these two sentences follow each other directly. In the gospel of Matthew, there are 3 sentences in between, while in Luke, there is a different sentence in between. The second sentence (Evangelion 21:19) ends with being saved like the gospels of Mark and Matthew, while the gospel of Luke ends with gaining souls there. This means that these verses have a Mark-Evangelion vs. Matthew vs. Luke reading and a Mark-Evangelion-Matthew vs. Luke reading.
