The Framework of the Story of Jesus

Meer over het boek

The book presents a groundbreaking analysis of the Synoptic Gospels, asserting that they are compilations of independently circulating oral stories from early Christian communities. Karl Ludwig Schmidt argues that the chronological and geographical frameworks seen in the Gospels were imposed by the evangelists rather than inherent to the original traditions. This first English translation of Schmidt's work aims to clarify and enhance understanding of Gospel interpretation, addressing misconceptions and emphasizing its significance in New Testament studies.
