The making of the New Testament documents

By E. Earle Ellis

Subjects: Bible, Textual Criticism, Australia, languages, Bible, criticism, textual, n. t.

Description: This volume identifies and investigates literary traditions and their implications for the authorship and dating of the Gospels and the letters of the New Testament. Departing from past scholarship, E. Earle Ellis argues that the Gospels and the letters are products of the corporate authorship of four allied apostolic missions and not just the creation of individual authors. The analysis of literary traditions also has implications for the dating of New Testament documents. --from publisher description
