Synopsis

Based on decades of painstaking, collaborative research, the authors of this volume have succeeded in making a historic breakthrough in understanding the Gospel of Luke. They have discovered never-before-seen objective data, proving that the author of the Gospel of Luke systematically and respectfully used sequences of material from the canonical Gospel of Matthew in writing his own Gospel.

The research results indicate that, contrary to standard scholarly belief, there is no need to suppose that Luke made any use of the Gospel of Mark or of Q. The authors thus take Gospel studies once and for all beyond the critical and theological impasse precipitated by the Q hypothesis toward a more rational understanding of the Gospel-making activity of the earliest Christian generation. Their report comes just as the international community of biblical scholars prepares to publish its meticulous reconstruction of the lost source Q, leading William R. Farmer to comment that "for these two diametrically opposed publications to appear on the scholarly market at virtually the same moment-a pure coincidence- could not be more exquisitely ironic."

"The Research Team of the International Institute for Gospel Studies has made an invaluable contribution to contemporary discussion of the synoptic problem. A team of scholars committed to the Two Gospel Hypothesis explores uncharted waters by offering for the first time in any language a credible account, pericope by pericoioe, of Luke's use of the Gospel of Matthew. This volume merits the attention of scholars interested in the synoptic problem and redaction criticism. Its findings must be either seriously considered or boldly refuted." - Arthur J. Bellinzoni, Well College, Aurora, NY
