Rethinking the Dates of the New Testament
Author: Jonathan Bernier
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493434675
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
This paradigm-shifting study is the first book-length investigation into the compositional dates of the New Testament to be published in over forty years. It argues that, with the notable exception of the undisputed Pauline Epistles, most New Testament texts were composed twenty to thirty years earlier than is typically supposed by contemporary biblical scholars. What emerges is a revised view of how quickly early Christians produced what became the seminal texts for their new movement.

How New Is the New Testament?
Author: Donald A. Hagner
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493415808
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
What is so new about the New Testament? Senior scholar Donald Hagner tackles the issue of how distinct early Christianity was from the first-century Judaism from which it emerged. He surveys newness in the entire New Testament canon, examining the evidence for points of continuity and discontinuity between formative Judaism and early Christianity. Hagner's accessible analysis of the New Testament text shows that despite Christianity's thorough Jewishness, from the beginning dramatic newness was an essential aspect of this early literature.
