Re-Kindling the Word: In Search of Gospel Truth

Dr. Thiede is a papyrus researching insurgent. He counters much of the anti-conservative textual views of recent years by offering papyrus-based proof that the New Testament Greek texts are: - Written by eyewitnesses to the events in the Gospels - Accurate study of the papyrus which demonstrate that these documents were written within 15 years of the events described - Not far enough from the deeds and words of Christ to be corrupted Essays include: - The origins of the Gospels and the Magdalen Manuscript (dated in the 40's or 50's: from the type of ink used and the stylized font of the papyrus) - Radiocarbon dating and Papyrus p64 at Oxford - Origin of the Gospel of Mark in light of recent investigations (Mark is very ancient) - Observations on Luke - Observations on 2Peter - Christianity and Qumran - Greek Qumran fragment 7Q5 - And over ten more essays This is important textual research that the apologist should add to his library.
