Rhetoric and the Synoptic Problem

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Rhetoric and the Synoptic Problem tackles the question of literary relationship between the New Testament synoptic gospels by way of rhetorical theory and criticism. Mark, Matthew, and Luke are portrayed as competing rhetorical narratives about the life of Jesus, with the Farrier-Goulder hypothesis the best working solution.
