The Making of the New Testament Documents

This volume identifies and investigates literary traditions and their implications for the authorship and dating of the Gospels and the letters of the New Testament. Ellis argues that the Gospels and the letters are products of the corporate authorship of four allied apostolic missions and not just the creation of individual authors. His arguments, if persuasive, will require a reassessment of the history of early Christianity.
