Chapter One

PART 1

The First Edition of the Gospel

INTRODUCTION

As was pointed out in the Introduction, Parts 1, 2, and 3 of this volume will each consist of three sections.

Section 1 of this Part will consist of an overview of the first edition. This is provided as an orientation to what follows and more particularly will provide a simplified listing of the various features by which the material of the first edition can be identified within the Gospel. Some readers, at least at the outset, will not wish to pursue a detailed analysis of the individual features of the edition. For these persons, this summary will be sufficient. When this Overview is compared with those of the second and third editions, it will be apparent how distinctive the material of each edition is. The extent to which these features can be said to be truly distinct from other similar features in the Gospel and the extent to which these features are truly distributed in the way that is proposed will ultimately establish their appropriateness for identifying the material of the various editions.

Section 2 presents a detailed Analysis of each of the characteristics used in the identification of the material of the first edition. In this detailed discussion, the characteristics will be divided into three categories: terminology, narrative orientation, and theology. Here all instances in the Gospel where the given characteristic appears are gathered together and discussed individually. By doing this, the interested reader is able to pursue the study to the extent and depth desired.

Section 3 describes in a comprehensive way various aspects of the first edition as they are revealed by the Analysis. This will include a discussion of the structure of the first edition, its genre, a survey of its theology, a discussion of the circumstances of the community at the time of the first edition, the historical value of the material, the religious and conceptual background, the relation of the material to the Synoptics, the author, the date of composition, and the locale.

SECTION 1. AN OVERVIEW OF THE FIRST EDITION

The first edition of the Gospel was a narrative of the complete ministry of Jesus, ranging from his encounter with John the Baptist at Bethany beyond the Jordan to his encounter...
