People of the Book pt. 2 Oct 20, 2022

Show notes

In this weeks episode, part 2 of 2, I defend the thesis that Christians were people of the Bible in accordance with their historical and cultural context. While recognizing that Christians most likely didn’t have access to their own physical copy of the complete Bible, Christians certainly had access to the contents of the scriptures and relied heavily upon them for faith, life, and practice while devoting themselves to the instructions of the book.

In part 2 we discuss:

Jewish Communities and the Book

Christian Communities

The Distribution of Manuscripts

Early Christian Statements on Scripture

Conclusion
