Synopsis

Excerpt from Introduction to the New Testament: The Collection of the Four Gospels and the Gospel of St. Matthew

The first and strictly preliminary chapter of this second volume will not deal with the composition of our gospels. I shall confine myself to inquire how and when the group, hitherto closed and inseparable, of these four writings was formed, Which we shall have thereafter to study separately.

In the first volume of this work I had not to strike out a new path, for studies pursued during a long series of years had led me to convictions very much in accordance with the views generally admitted on the composition, the date, and the chronological order° of the thirteen epistles Of St. Paul which I regard as authentic.
