The First Draft of St. Luke's Gospel

By Vincent Taylor

"The First Draft of St. Luke's Gospel" is a significant contribution to New Testament scholarship, specifically addressing the complex questions surrounding the composition of the Synoptic Gospels. Written by the renowned theologian Vincent Taylor, this work delves into the Proto-Luke hypothesis, a theory suggesting that an initial version of the Gospel was composed by combining the Q source with Luke's own unique materials before the author had access to the Gospel of Mark.

Through meticulous textual analysis, Taylor examines the linguistic and structural evidence to support the existence of this earlier draft. The study offers deep insights into the literary methods of the evangelist and provides a compelling framework for understanding how the Gospel of Luke achieved its final form. Scholars and students of Biblical criticism will find this work an essential resource for exploring the historical and theological development of the New Testament. "The First Draft of St. Luke's Gospel" remains a vital text for those interested in the synoptic problem and the evolution of early Christian writings.
