- Introduction - I. THE LANGUAGE: A PROBLEM IN SEMASIOLOGY: Philology and lexicography necessary for the interpretation of the N.T. / The tension between thought and expression / The importance of modern lexicographical discoveries for the understanding of N.T. Greek / The specific problem of N.T. language illustrated by the word ekklesia and by the word alètheia / The historical problem raised by semasiology in the N.T. - II. THE TEXT: The need for an adequate text of the N.T. / Modern textual criticism occasioned by the necessity of testing the Textus Receptus / Pedigrees of manuscripts and pedigrees of variant readings / The Byzantine Text and the Vulgate: the versions and the evidence of the Fathers ; Alexandria ; Caesarea / An example of the textual critical method: Mk. 1.2 / Further examples, from the Parable of the Ten Virgins, raising the historical problem - III. THE HISTORY PAGE : The problem as it is presented to the critical historian by the references to the passion of Jesus in the first Epistle of Peter / History and the interpretation of history / The historical problem defined with reference (a) to the relation between the tradition and the need of the church (b) to the O.T. context in which the significance of the passion is exposed. - IV. THE EVANGELISTS : Jesus interpreted through the medium of the O.T. / The problem of the origin of this interpretation / The subtle influence of Psalm xxii / O.T. allusions in Matthew, in Luke, in Mark / The thesis of Mark and the problems which it raises / The definite purpose with which the evangelists wrote necessitates an investigation of their editorial methods - V. THE SYNOPTIC PROBLEM: The fundamental solution / Further theories unproven / The possibility of estimating the editorial tendencies of Matthew and Luke and the importance of the discovery of four independent strata of tradition / The inadequacy of the older criticism / The necessity of further critical inquiry - VI. MATTHEW AND LUKE: Divergencies from Mark and the ‘heightening of the Christology’ / Jesus as ‘teacher’ in the gospels of Matthew and Luke, illustrated by a comparison of their use of the word ‘gospel’ with the usage of Mark / The explanation and justification of Matthaean-Lucan editing of Mark / The problems of editorial distortion, misunderstanding, and simplification / The critic inevitably thrown back upon the investigation of Mark. - VII. MARK : The importance of ‘Christologies’ in the tradition / The Christology of Mark a ‘Son of God’ Christology / This Christology present in all strata of the tradition / Similarly, the title ‘Son of Man’ and its significance are both Marcan and non-Marcan / The Christology of the evangelists was not imposed by them upon the tradition, but was embedded in the tradition before they arranged it / The main concern of the evangelists was to elucidate the tradition - VIII. MIRACLES, PARABLES, AND APHORISMS: The tradition subdivided according to subject matter, in order to discover whether there is evidence of the existence of a non-Christological material 1. Miracles. The problems of the significance of the miraculous narratives / Matthaean-Lucan omission and editing of the Marcan picture of Jesus as wonder-worker / The significance of the Marcan miracle narratives is, however, Christological / The Christological background of the miracles is both Marcan and non-Marcan / The O.T. context of the miracles and the posing of the Christological problem / Matthew and Luke emphasize and expose this problem. 2. Parables. The Christology in the parables / The parables are neither merely similitudes nor merely alle¬gories / The themes of the parables are in the main O.T. and messianic themes / The meaning of the word parabole / The parables, like the miracles, are shot through with Christological significance 3. Aphorisms. The ethical teaching of Jesus paralleled in form and content in the rabbinic literature / Yet, in all strata an antithesis is presumed between the moral demands of Jesus and the moral demands of contemporary Judaism and of the Law / The urgency due to the presence of Jesus / The disciples of Jesus and his moral / The messianic background of the ethical teaching illustrated by the teaching concerning divorce and concerning riches / The contrast between present humiliation and future glory is a messianic contrast / The aphorisms wholly penetrated by the Christology - IX. THE THEOLOGIANS: ST. PAUL, THE AUTHOR OF THE JOHANNINE WRITINGS, AND THE AUTHOR OF THE EPISTLE TO THE HEBREWS: The claim of St. Paul, of the author of the Johannine writings, and of the author of the Epistle to the Hebrews to bear witness to the Jesus of history requires examination / The synoptic evangelists and the theologians contrasted / Is the witness of the theologians invalidated by spiritual experience, by mysticism, and by contact with oriental mystery religions? / The death of Christ the basis of St. Paul’s gospel / His Christology presumes the obedience of Jesus in history and requires imitation / The life and death of Christ regarded from two points of view / Yet he is one Christ / Mysticism controlled by history / The author of the fourth Gospel and spiritual romanticism / The historical Jesus provides the criterion of spiritual experience and is the basis of the life of the church / The structure of the fourth gospel and its purpose / The Christology recast in form, but not in content / The history of Jesus in the Epistle to the Hebrews and the purpose of the Epistle / The O.T. fulfilled in the obedience of Jesus / The importance of the theologians for the reconstruction of the Jesus of history - X. JESUS : The task of the historian / The O.T. background of the conscious messianic obedience of Jesus / The messianic victorious conflict with the prince of evil and the consequent freedom from sin / The obedience of Jesus not a human achievement but the salvation of God wrought out in flesh and blood in complete humiliation / The resurrection and the limits of critical reconstruction - Conclusion - Appendix A / Appendix B - An index of references |
