- 'The New Testament and Its Text in the 2nd Century: (Texts and Works in the New Testament Age)'
Amazon description & a slightly modified google translation -
Das Neue Testament ist das Ergebnis einer einheitlichen Redaktion in der Mitte des 2. Jahrhunderts. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes greifen diese These von David Trobisch auf und fragen, was sie für das Neue Testament, für seinen Text und für die neutestamentliche Theologie bedeutet. Wie lässt sich die These einer Endredaktion kritisieren, differenzieren, weiterdenken? Was besagt sie für die Datierung der neutestamentlichen Texte, welchen Einfluss hat sie auf die Vorstellungen zum gottesdienstlichen Gebrauch? In welchem Verhältnis steht die Endredaktion zu der Schriftensammlung, die für Marcion bezeugt ist? Welche Konsequenzen ergeben sich daraus für die Textkritik? Wie müssen die Varianten beurteilt, wie die frühe Geschichte der Textüberlieferung verstanden werden? Welche theologischen Implikationen hat die These der Endredaktion? Die Beiträge des Bandes machen das große Potential der Endredaktionsthese deutlich und zeigen, dass die Diskussion noch ganz am Anfang steht. https://www.amazon.com/Testament-Jahrhu ... 675&sr=1-6 |
The New Testament is the result of a unified editorial staff in the middle of the 2nd century [...] this volume take up the thesis of David Trobisch and asks what it means for the New Testament, for its text, and for New Testament theology. How can the thesis of an editorial office be differentiated, criticized, [and] thought [about] further? What does [this] mean for the dating of the New Testament texts, what influence does [this] have on ideas for the worship service? What is the relationship between the final editorial and the collection of writings attested to Marcion? What are the consequences for textual criticism? How should the variants be judged, how the early history of the textual tradition be understood? Which theological implications does the thesis of the final editing have? The contributions of the volume make clear the great potential of the final editorial thesis and show that the discussion is still at the very beginning. |
The Oldest Gospel: Klinghardt Edition, Quiet Waters Publications, July 2018
by Matthias Klinghardt (Contributor), Stephen Trobisch (Translator), David Trobisch (Preface)
This gospel was first published by Marcion of Sinope as part of a collection that also contained ten letters of Paul. Its title was simply "Gospel," suggesting to readers of the collection that it was the gospel of which Paul spoke in his letter to the Galatians (Gal 1:6-9). Marcion moved from Asia Minor to Rome by the year 144. He insisted that someone had used the anonymous book to create the "Gospel According to Luke."
No manuscripts of the full text are known to have survived. Tertullian of Carthage, Epiphanius of Salamis, the author of the Dialogues of Adamantius, and several others, however, wrote extensively about this gospel. Their quotes and detailed descriptions preserved much of the text.
Throughout the centuries, many attempts of reconstructing this gospel were undertaken, but none* with the painstakingly detailed effort of Matthias Klinghardt, Professor of New Testament at the Technical University of Dresden, Germany. Klinghardt's 2015 reconstruction is presented here for the first time in an English translation. This gospel is presumed to be older than the canonical Four-Gospel book.

- some may well dispute that. Dieter Roth's reconstruction is likely to be held in v. high regard. And there have been other reconstructions this decade: BeDuhn, Vinzent (though criticised for poor documentation of it in his 2014 book, Marcion and the Dating of the Synoptic Gospels); and perhaps Moll and others
