Synopsis

A masterly presentation of the complete text of the four gospels. Lucid in arrangement and resourceful in typography, it simplifies the processes of comparison and understanding. The purpose of this book is to present the records of the life of Jesus in that form which will make most fully available the contributions of the several sources, both individual and collective, to an understanding of the actual career of Jesus. It has been the aim so as to set forth the material as to provide primarily for an historical rather than a critical knowledge of the records. Stated in another way, the foremost intention has been to produce, in the language and in the order of the original records, a Life of Jesus. But it is thought also that, in the pursuance of that aim, the literary phenomena of the records have been so exhibited as to provide the basis for somewhat thorough critical study of the source relationships of these records.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The purpose of the book is tx) present the records of the life of Jesus in that form which will make most fully available the contributions of the several sources, both individual and collective, to an understanding of the actual career of Jesus. It has been the aim so to set forth the material as to provide primarily for an historical rather than a critical knowledge of the records. Stated in another way, the foremost intention has been to produce, in the language and in the order of the original records, a Life of Jesus. But it is thought also that, in the pursuance of that aim, the literary phenomena of the records have been so exhibited as to provide the basis for somewhat thorough critical study of the source relationships of these records. THE METHOD At no point throughout the work has any theory or hypothesis as to any literary or other relation of these records to one another had any part in the determination of the arrangement or the showing forth of the material Mark is placed in the order of Mark; Luke is placed in the order of Luke, and John in its own ord. In the case of Matthew only has any departure in order been made, and there for three chapters only (8-9-10) of the twenty-eight of that record. The dq arture made in that case was not based on any theory as to the soiu-ce relations of the records, but resulted sinq ly from the decision to conform Matthew in these chapters (8-9-10), as Matthew of itself is conformed throuout the rest of its structure, to that order of events on which Mark and Luke are in complete agreemenL It will be evident, therefore, that not only has no theory of the rdations of these records had any place in the work but also that the book cannot be regarded as a harmony of the records.
