- Summary:
- "How early Christian gospels were written is an old question that continues to engage scholars. This book argues that the Gospel of Luke's use of the earlier Gospel of Mark should be placed in the context of 'Rewritten Scripture'-- early Jewish writings like Jubilees and Josephus's Antiquities, which interpret Scripture by rewriting it. A similar strategy of interpretation through rewriting best explains Luke's reworking of Mark." -- Publisher, page four of cover.
