The Formation and Transmission of the Canonical Gospels (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This work provides an in-depth exploration of the formation, transmission, and reception of the canonical Gospels within early Christian communities. Beginning with the historical context surrounding the writing and spread of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, it traces the theological, historical, and ecclesiastical significance of these texts. The Gospels not only served as foundational documents for early Christian faith but also played a crucial role in shaping Christian identity, doctrine, and practice. The analysis covers key theological themes such as the nature of Jesus, the Kingdom of God, salvation, and the ethical teachings of the Gospels, which deeply influenced early Christian moral thought and liturgy. It also delves into the reception of the Gospels, highlighting the process of canonization, the role of the Church Fathers in interpreting and defending these texts, and their centrality in the development of Christian orthodoxy. Through an examination of the diverse ways in which the Gospels were interpreted, read, and utilized in early Christian worship, the work outlines how these texts formed the foundation of Christian theology, doctrine, and ecclesiastical structure, shaping the course of Christian history from its inception to its eventual establishment as the dominant religion in the Roman Empire.
