DOWNLOAD EBOOKJesus never wrote a book. Most scholars assume that information about Jesus was preserved only orally up until the writing of the Gospels, allowing ample time for the stories of Jesus to grow and diversify. Alan Millard here argues that written reports about Jesus could have been made during his lifetime and that some among his audiences and followers may very well have kept notes, first-hand documents that the Evangelists could weave into their narratives.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Dead Sea Scrolls are found in many varied publications -- often ordered only by publication date, rather than a more easily navigable system -- making specific texts difficult to find. Joseph Fitzmyer's guide offers a practical remedy to this dilemma. A Guide to the Dead Sea Scrolls and Related Literature starts by explaining the conventional system of abbreviations for the Scrolls. Then it helpfully lists specifically where readers can find each of the Scrolls and fragmentary texts from the eleven caves of Qumran and all the related sites, using the officially assigned numbers of the text. Fitzmyer supplies information on study tools helpful for scholars -- concordances, dictionaries, translations, outlines of longer texts, and more -- and briefly indicates electronic resources for the study of the Dead Sea Scrolls.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume of the Princeton Theological Seminary Dead Sea Scrolls Project significantly helps us understand Jewish interpretations of Torah, preoccupations with purity, penchants for creating new prayers, the need to bless the Creator at all times, the sacredness of the land, eschatology, and celebrating the importance of the Creator "God" and "Israel." Thanks to improved images supplied by the Israel Museum and focused research of other specialists, many of these compositions are significantly improved, some fragments are read for the first time, and names are provided to fragments that have been considered “insignificant.” If the Bedouins tore manuscripts, cast others aside, and repaired sandals with others and if most of the manuscripts in the Qumran Caves had deteriorated over time due to exposure, then a small fragment may represent a once-large scroll. Eldon J. Epp and Larry Hurtado provide the Qumran Greek Fragments. Almost all of the rest of the volume is the work of James Charlesworth with Lea Berkuz, but contributions by Daniel Gurtner, Blake Jurgens, and one contribution each by Jolyon Pruszinski and B. Allen complete the volume. Additionally, Henry W. Morisada Rietz and Loren L. Johns served as Associate Editors.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA renewed interest in textual criticism has created an unfortunate proliferation of myths, mistakes, and misinformation about this technical area of biblical studies. Elijah Hixson and Peter Gurry, along with a team of New Testament textual critics, offer up-to-date, accurate information on the history and current state of the New Testament text that will serve apologists and offer a self-corrective to evangelical excesses.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 1901, the Reverend Charles B. Huleatt acquired three pieces of a New Testament manuscript on the murky antiquities market of Luxor, Egypt. He donated these papyrus fragments to his alma mater, Magdalen College in Oxford, England, where they sat in a display case and drew very little attention. Nearly a century later, the fragments--part of the Gospel of Matthew and thought to date from a.d. 180-200--were reevaluated by scholar Carsten Peter Thiede. His research showed the bits of papyrus to be significantly older, written about a.d. 60. But what is all the fuss about? How can three ancient papyrus fragments be so significant? How did Thiede arrive at this radical early dating? And what does it mean to the average Christian? Now readers have authoritative answers to these pivotal questions, in a book written by Thiede himself and by Times of London journalist Matthew d'Ancona, who originally broke the story to the public. Indeed, the Magdalen Papyrus corroborates three traditions: Saint Matthew actually wrote the Gospel bearing his name; he wrote it within a generation of Jesus' death; and the Gospel stories about Jesus are true. Some will vehemently deny Thiede's claims, others will embrace them, but nobody can ignore THE JESUS PAPYRUS.
