- Summary:
- Petersen (1950-2006) is best remembered for his book on Titian's Diatessaron, and several of the 32 essays collected here trace how he worked his way to it, and others trace his thinking after it. The topics include the parable of the lost sheep in the Gospel of Thomas and the synoptics, the integrity of Ephrem's commentary on the Diatessaron, Eusabius and the paschal controversy, the history of the harmonized gospel tradition from Justin to Pepys, and problems in the Syriac New Testament and how Syrian exegetes solved them, and the Syro-Latin text of the gospels and how the Western Text became a phantom.
