The Hebrew Gospel and the Development of the Synoptic Tradition

Front Cover
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, Oct 16, 2009 - Religion - 360 pages
This book offers a new explanation of the development of the first three Gospels based on a careful examination of both patristic testimony to the Hebrew Gospel and internal evidence in the canonical Gospels themselves. James Edwards breaks new ground and challenges assumptions that have long been held in the New Testament guild but actually lack solid evidence.
