Book The Composition and Date of Acts  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Composition and Date of Acts Classic Reprint written by Charles Cutler Torrey and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Composition and Date of Acts The hypothesis of a Semitic source ( or source) underlying more or less of the first half of Acts has commended itself to a few scholars. Thus Harnack, Lukas der Arst, 1906, p. 84: " Es spricht Wichtiges dafur, dass Lukas in der ersten Ha lfte der Acta eine aramaische Quelle ubersetzt und benutzt hat, aber schlagend kann die Annahme nicht widerlegt werden, dass er lediglich auf mundlichen Mitteilungen fusst, Vollends unsicher ist es, welchen Umfang die Quellegehabt hat und ob es uberhaupt eine einzige quelle gewesen ist." Similarly in his Apostelgeschichte, 1908, pp. 138, 186. Wendt, Die Apostelgeschichle, 1913, p. 16 says: " Im Anschluss an Nestle StKr 1896 S. 102 ff. nimmt [Blass] die Bearbeitung einer aramaischen Quelle im ersten Teile der Apostelgeschichte an. Die in Diesem ersten Teile haufiger als im zweiten vorliegenden Aramaismen werden von ihm als Beweis hierfur betrachtet (evang. sec. Luc., 1897, p. vi, xxi, ss.)." See also Blass' very meager statement in his Philology of the Gospels (1898), 141, 193 f., 201, of his somewhat hastily conceived theory according to which Luke followed an Aramaic source in the first twelve chapters of Acts. But so far as I am aware, no one has ever attempted to point out speciffically Aramaic locutions in Acts. Nor has the search for Semitisms, of whatever sort, hitherto resulted in any fruitful discovery, A few doubtful examples have been adduced in support of still more doubtful conclusions; there has been no effort to collect and examine the material of this nature.

Book Rethinking the Dates of the New Testament

Download or read book Rethinking the Dates of the New Testament written by Jonathan Bernier and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paradigm-shifting study is the first book-length investigation into the compositional dates of the New Testament to be published in over forty years. It argues that, with the notable exception of the undisputed Pauline Epistles, most New Testament texts were composed twenty to thirty years earlier than is typically supposed by contemporary biblical scholars. What emerges is a revised view of how quickly early Christians produced what became the seminal texts for their new movement.

This book was released on 2004-02-25 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our conclusion from this survey is, therefore, that we have found nothing to upset the verdict, to which we have been led by critical investigation of the Acts of the Apostles: the second and third Gospels, as well as the Acts, were composed while St. Paul was still alive, and that the first gospel came into being only a few years earlier. - Adolf Harnack

Book The Composition and Date of Acts Volume 1 2

Download or read book The Composition and Date of Acts Volume 1 2 written by Charles Cutler Torrey and published by Theclassics.Us. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ... i suicide. The translation irprjviis yevbpevos left room for this, as the use of iriirreiv would not have done. The Greek is not difficult, cf. /caret yfjv yevopevos, 2 Macc. 9, 8, in the story of the death of Antiochus Epiphanes. It is hardly necessary to insist that irprjviis does not mean, and could not mean, "swollen"! The fanciful expansion of the story found in Papias was the source of the Armenian translation in this passage, as well as of the Armenian and Latin ( n-prjvels rendered inflates) in Wisd. 4,19.1 The account of the death of Judas in Acts is not derived from the passage in Wisdom (Preuschen, p. 8); it is not surprising, on the other hand, that after Acts 1-15 had been translated into Greek many should have been reminded by it of the words pi DEGREES . . . irprjvets in the older passage -- though the resemblance is not in any way remarkable. Nor does it seem to be the case that Matt. follows another tradition (" einer vollig abweichenden Ueberlieferung," Preuschen, ibid.). The author of the First Gospel starts from the same popular belief regarding the "Field of Blood,"2 but makes out of it his own story, more suo, on the basis of Zech. 11, 12 f. There is nothing improbable in the supposition that Judas owned a piece of land, and committed suicide on it; nor that the " Field of Blood " actually received its name in this way. 1, 22. "During all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, ap%kp.evos dird Tov Pairriaparos 'luavov ecos rrjs rjp.epas rjs &veinxdrj a' rjp&v." This is an Aramaic idiom: "from (p H iwd) 3 . . . unto (ij?)." Similarly Matt. 20, 8, ap apevos aird Tuv eax&-ruv 2o)s Tuv irp

    Book Details:
  • Author : F. Scott Spencer
  • Publisher : A&C Black
  • Release : 1997-01-01
  • ISBN : 9781850756736
  • Pages : 278 pages

Download or read book Acts written by F. Scott Spencer and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reading offers a traveller's guide through the book of Acts, charting both narrative features (plot development, character building and shifting points of view) and cultural scenarios informing the story (honor-shame contests, patron-client relations and purity-pollution boundaries). Within this 'literary-cultural' framework, Spencer undertakes to map the temporal, spatial and social settings of each segment of the Acts journey. While often detecting internal repetitive patterns along the way as well as comparative links with the preceding Lukan gospel and Jewish scriptures, this reading also exposes certain dramatic tensions within Acts (such as a 'double message' regarding women's prophetic ministry) and distinctive moves beyond prior narratives. The element of surprise is maximized, so that the commentary reads somewhat like a first-time exploration of the text.
