Publisher's Synopsis
The book titled ""The Oxyrhynchus Sayings Of Jesus In Relation To The Gospel-Making Movement Of The First And Second Centuries"" by Clyde W. Votaw is a scholarly work that explores the relationship between the sayings of Jesus found in the Oxyrhynchus papyri and the early Christian movement that produced the gospels of the New Testament. The Oxyrhynchus papyri are a collection of ancient manuscripts discovered in Egypt in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which include fragments of early Christian texts. Votaw's book focuses on the sayings of Jesus found in these papyri and examines how they relate to the development of the gospel-making movement in the first and second centuries. He explores the historical context in which these sayings were recorded and how they were transmitted and preserved over time. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the relationship between the Oxyrhynchus sayings and the gospel-making movement. Votaw also provides an analysis of the language and style of the sayings, as well as their theological and ethical implications. Overall, ""The Oxyrhynchus Sayings Of Jesus In Relation To The Gospel-Making Movement Of The First And Second Centuries"" is a comprehensive study of the early Christian movement and its development, as seen through the lens of the Oxyrhynchus sayings of Jesus. It will be of interest to scholars and students of early Christianity, as well as anyone interested in the history of the New Testament and the development of Christian theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
