Excerpt from Two Lectures on the 'Sayings of Jesus' Recently Discovered at Oxyrhynchus: Delivered at Oxford on Oct. 23, 1897
Again, it needs to be remembered that in estimating the genuineness and authority of the Sayings, each may claim the right of being judged separately on its own merits; they may have been collected from various sources of quite unequal value; and as the admitted genuineness of the first does not carry with it that of the others, so the great difficulty of supposing the third to have been spoken by our Lord does not necessarily affect the second or the fourth.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of sayings attributed to Jesus. Discovered as part of a much larger document in Egypt in the late 19th century, they join the small group of non-canonical sayings that have long fascinated historians and theologians. While the book does not argue whether these are genuine, it does provide an in-depth examination of the historical and literary background to these sayings, shedding new light on the richness and diversity of early Christian thought. The author places them alongside similar teachings from Jewish and other sources, and considers the possibility that they reflect an early form of Christian belief that differed in some ways from that which was ultimately enshrined in the New Testament.
