RT Article T1 Interpolation in the Epistles: Weighing Probability JF New Testament studies VO 36 IS 3 SP 431 OP 443 A1 Munro, Winsome 1925-1994 LA English YR 1990 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1785734091 AB In my book Authority in Paul and Peter: The Identification of a Pastoral Stratum in the Pauline Corpus and 1 Peter, I claim to have established not certainty, but a balance of probability, that an extensive layer of Pastoral-type redaction overlies this literature. I did so on the basis of an accumulation of converging lines of evidence which came to light in applying different kinds of criteria to relevant passages. Something I did not do, which I propose now to consider and illustrate, is how to weigh degrees of probability that particular passages are later addition or interpolations, whether they can be connected with the Pastoral Epistles or not.
