By the late second century, early Christian gospels had been
divided into two groups by a canonical boundary that assigned
normative status to four of them while consigning their competitors
to the margins. Connecting Gospels: Beyond the
Canonical/Non-canonical Divide finds new ways to reconnect these
divided texts. Starting from the assumption that, in spite of their
differences, all early gospels express a common belief in the
absolute significance of Jesus and his earthly career, this
authoritative collection makes their interconnectedness fruitful
for interpretation. The contributors have each selected a theme or
topic and trace it across two or more gospels on either side of the
canonical boundary, and the resulting convergences and divergences
shed light not least on the canonical texts themselves as they are
read from new and unfamiliar vantage points. This volume
demonstrates that early gospel literature can be regarded as a
single field of study, in contrast to the overwhelming predominance
of the canonical four characteristic of traditional gospels
scholarship.
