It has for long been generally assumed that the relationship
between our canonical texts of the Gospels of Mark and Matthew is
to be explained in terms of direct literary dependence, either of
Matthew on Mark, or of Mark on Matthew. Professor Rist questions
this assumption vigourously, and argues that it leads to
contradictory and paradoxical conclusions. He replaces the theory
of literary dependence with the thesis that Matthew and Mark grew
up independently on the basis of a common oral tradition, and
supports his view by detailed examination of a large number of
parallel passages. The clarity and cogency of the author's argument
is in the best tradition of this important series of monographs. In
the context of the current resurgence of interest in the Synoptic
problem, it will be welcomed by all concerned with the study of the
New Testament.
