1. Rethinking The Dates Of The New Testament
The Evidence for Early Composition
Argues that many New Testament writings were composed earlier than commonly assumed by reexamining external attestations, internal literary and theological indicators, and the first‑century historical setting. It offers a coherent, whole-canon chronology that places much of the corpus—Pauline letters, the Gospels, and Acts—into the mid‑first century, often before 70 CE, and shows how such an earlier timeline affects debates about eyewitness testimony, community formation, and the transmission of the Jesus tradition.
