| Summary: | The starting point of this wide-ranging and original study of gospel traditions is the observation that the Sayings Source Q showed a great interest in the figure of John the Baptist. From this Rothschild seeks to build up a theory, which is both original and at times startling, that a large number of traditions now ascribed to Jesus in the gospels were originally linked to the figure of the Baptist. In particular Q (at perhaps an earlier stage) was a collection of Baptist traditions and only later ascribed to Jesus. Rothschild also claims that redaction criticism has skewed the evidence, at times badly, by overemphasizing the possibility of the evangelists’ playing down the significance of John. |
