Description
Graham Stanton's Jesus and Gospel explores how the term 'Gospel' evolved from its origins in oral proclamation to its later association with four written accounts of Jesus' life. With new evidence and fresh perspectives, Stanton tackles this complex question and examines early criticisms of Jesus and the adoption of the codex format.
This book offers a timely and accessible analysis that will be valuable to New Testament scholars and students alike. Half of the material presented here is previously unpublished, making it an important contribution to the field.
