A FRESH APPROACH TO THE NEW TESTAMENT AND EARLY CHRISTIAN LITERATURE

Granted the title is too long -- but the book is all too short. Dibelius has been one of the leading exponents of Formgeschichte (Form criticism) about which we have heard so much recently. There is an insistance on getting to the source if it is a letter -- literature, New Testamoni or not that has all the lure of a Treasure Hu Used of all the intriguing problems due up there is a method of approach that will open many roads for the wide awake reader to pursue. Dibelius is New Testament professor at Heldelberg.
