The Framework of the Story of Jesus

Mehr zum Buch

The book presents a groundbreaking analysis of the Synoptic Gospels, revealing them as compilations of independently circulating oral stories from early Christian communities. Schmidt argues that these traditions originally existed without a set sequence or specific context. He explains how the evangelists later imposed chronology and locations when compiling these narratives, providing a fresh perspective on the formation of the Gospels. This work is pivotal for understanding the historical context of New Testament studies.
