The Sayings of Jesus From Oxyrhynchus: From Oxyrhynchus (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book presents an analysis of a series of fragments found at Oxyrhynchus, Egypt, which comprise previously unknown sayings of Jesus. Discovered in 1897 and 1903, the fragments provide a fascinating glimpse into the early development of Christian thought. The sayings, which were likely compiled between 100 and 300 AD, display a blend of Jewish and Egyptian influences. They offer insights into the nature of the teachings of Jesus and shed light on the beliefs and practices of early Christian communities. The author explores the relationship between these sayings and the canonical Gospels, examining points of divergence and similarity. The book delves into the historical and literary context of the fragments, offering a valuable resource for scholars of early Christianity and anyone seeking to understand the origins and evolution of the Christian faith.
