How does Luke claim to distinguish his biography of Jesus from other recorded biographies from eyewitnesses (e.g. Matthew and John)?

Luke's claim was accurance and order of the events since he was there from the begining. His aim was to arrange the events in an orderly manner so that the Most Excellent Theophilis should know the certainity of things instructed to him. Infact, this is true with the arrangements of temptations of Jesus which is differently from the gospel of Mathew and John. Luke saw Jesus as the son of man while John emphasised that Jesus is the son of God and that Jesus is God. Thanks to God , all what is written from the four gospel is the reveletions from God. Amen!!!

Since Luke was researching for a high government official, "Most Excellent Theophilis", how many eyewitnesses (and who) do you think Luke interviewed before writing his report?

I think Luke interviewed the deciples of Jesus , mostly Peter who denied Jesus three times before the rooster crows. As the Doctor , Luke might have interviewed Physicians in order to know the difference between Jesus' healing and that of the traditional healers. In addition , Luke might have interviewed the parents of Jesus Mary and Josephy in oder to know the humanity of Jesus. Luke might also have interviewed the appostles who witnessed for Christ, in this case, Paul, Peter, James. Lastly, Luke might have interviewed the officials close to the "Most Exellent Thophilis" in order to know how he can approach the Most Excellent Theophilis with the good news. Luke knew that after reaching the Most Excellent Theophillis with the good news, it will be an easy go for others to follow Jesus. This was arranged and Luke was recieving reveletions from God. AMEN!!!!!!

What main or new things did you learn by studying Mark`s biography of Jesus?

I have learnt that Jesus has power over all things and that there is nothing impossible with Jesus. I have learnt that Jesus quoted the scriptures to overcome the devil when temptation come over Him. That my faith should be strong since Jesus died and is alive at the same time those who does not believe God condemnes them. I have seen that the book of Mark is orignal gospel of Jesus and for clarifications, Mark quoted the book of Isiah the prophet for believers to understand very well. I like the book of Mark which has transformed my life to another level spiritually. I have enjoyed learning the parables, temptations and the miracles of Jesus. Amen!!!
