Narrative Elements in the Double Tradition (Beihefte Zur Zeitschrift Fur Die Neutestamentliche Wissenschaft Und Die Kunde Der Alteren Kirche) Hardcover - 2002

by Stephen Hultgren


From the publisher

For a long time mainstream gospel scholarship has assumed that the so-called Q material (the double tradition) in Matthew and Luke represents a document or tradition that was almost exclusively orientated towards the sayings of Jesus of Nazareth, with little interest in a narrative about him.

This book argues, on the contrary, that the narrative material in the double tradition existed from the very beginning within a coherent Jesus narrative that ran from his baptism to his passion. Far from being inserted by Matthew and Luke into the framework of Mark, the double tradition is structured on the very same narrative framework as the Gospel of Mark (a framework that predates Mark). Conventional dichotomies in gospel origins, the historical Jesus, and the history of early Christianity are thus drawn into question.

First line

The assumption that Q represents a tradition, document, or even a community that lacked a narrative interest in Jesus of Nazareth rests on a more fundamental view of gospel origins.
