Jesus and the Eyewitnesses: The Gospels As Eyewitness Testimony Perfect – 2008/11/7
英語版
Richard Bauckham
(著)
'Jesus and the Eyewitness' argues that the four Gospels are closely based on the eyewitness testimony of those who knew Jesus. The author challenges the assumption that the accounts of Jesus circulated as 'anonymous community traditions', asserting instead that they were transmitted in the name of the original eyewitnesses. To drive home this controversial point, Bauckham draws on internal literary evidence, the use of personal names in first-century Jewish Palestine, and recent developments in the understanding of oral tradition. Jesus and the Eyewitnesses also taps into the rich resources of modern study of memory, especially in cognitive psychology, refuting the conclusions of the form critics and calling New Testament scholarship to make a clean break with this long-dominant tradition. Finally, Bauckham challenges readers to end the classic division between the 'historical Jesus' and the'Christ of faith', proposing instead the 'Jesus of testimony' as presented by the Gospels. Sure to ignite heated debate on the precise character of the testimony about Jesus, Jesus and the Eyewitnesses is a groundbreaking work that will be valued by scholars, students, and all who seek to understand the origins of the Gospels.

Comprehensive And Edifying
2016年1月31日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Over the years, New Testament scholars have defended many different views on the nature of the gospels and their historical reliability. Bauckham has presented a thorough case in defense of the view that the gospels are ultimately the product of eyewitness testimony, not only providing significant and varied positive evidence to support the claim but also providing argument against competing approaches, such as Form Criticism. The work is comprehensive and covers a variety of topics such as the study of onomastics (the study of proper names) in the gospels, evaluations of narrative devices and literary techniques, surveys of extra-canonical literature, and considerations of the reliability of eyewitness memory. I would not consider the book a light read, but if you're looking for an in-depth handling of the material this book would be a great resource to turn to.
Bauckham claims that oral traditions concerning the life and teaching of Jesus were attributed to named eyewitnesses while they were still alive in geographically proximal locations. He refers to sources such as Luke, Papias, and Quadratus to support the argument. He notes that Jewish name usage in the New Testament is inexplicable from the perspective of extra-Palestinian-Jewish invention and that the well-recorded lists of disciples conjoined with the practice of book-ending a narrative with the name of the primary eyewitness guarantor of the tradition (what Bauckham refers to as an “inclusio”) lends significant credence to the gospels as being comprised of and relying on eyewitness testimony. Additionally, Bauckham covers the use of “plural-to-singular” narrative devices to support a Petrine perspective in some of the gospels, discusses how the collective memory of the early church was rooted in the recollective memories of Peter, and describes how the model of authoritative teachers passing on lessons to a community was normative among ancient sources, as evidenced by Papias, Irenaeus, and even Josephus.
I found Bauckham's chapter on the memory of eyewitness testimony to be extremely interesting. It clarified a lot about how reliable memory can be given certain contexts, such as an event being unique or unusual, unexpected, particularly salient to the eyewitness, and so on. It clarified what kinds of details are typically better remembered than others. Likewise, the account of a man accurately recalling significant details of an event that he experienced when he was a child seventy two years after the fact was astonishing. Despite all of its problems, memory can be incredibly reliable in certain circumstances.
The book is thorough, extremely comprehensive, and intellectually challenging. Bauckham handles the evidence fairly and even-handedly, even when I wished he hadn't. There are two views specifically on which I differed from the author before I picked up the book and that now, having finished the book, I'm beginning to question – namely, on matters concerning the authorship of the gospel of John and the identity of Levi in the gospels. Bauckham's work is convincing, but it takes a bit of effort to work through. It is dry at times, and because it is as thorough as it is, it can seem to be repetitive in places. If you're looking for an easy, beginner's approach to biblical scholarship, you'll probably want to start somewhere else. But if you want a balanced and in-depth treatment of the gospels, or if you're curious about what evidence there is in support of the gospels being eyewitness testimony, pick this thing up. It's a tremendous resource.

A huge recommendation
2013年2月25日にカナダでレビュー済みAmazonで購入
A good read but very academic, but if you question Biblical authenticity, or are ministering to people who think the Bible is unreliable, this is a necessity as a resource. Weather you are speaking for Biblical truth or arguing against it, it's always better to know what you're talking about. This book will help, but only if you have a Bible with you.

Excellent!

I'm halfway through and this book is simply amazing. The author really sells his case for the names mentioned in the NT as being actual witnesses to the events depicted. A scholarly study that's accessible and a real page turner.

An evidence - based approach to the writing of the Gospels
2014年4月22日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This is a fresh look at the way the Gospels were written based on evidence rather than on assumption. The book looks at some of the archaeological and documentary evidence for life at the time of Jesus, especially the frequency of personal names used, and notes that the Gospels fit the picture of other evidence very closely. The names provide an analytical tool which is used to probe the way in which the Gospels were written.
This book deserves to be read by anyone who is about to take a look at the way the New Testament was written. It will no doubt become a classic.
