Publisher's summary

Late Revelations introduces a revolutionary model for understanding the creation of the gospels in the New Testament and beyond. Rather than viewing the gospels as static and finished works published at one time, this book proposes that the initial gospels were "waves" of rolling traditions—stories, teachings, and sayings that evolved within early Christian groups. These traditions were fluid and dynamic, initially lacking the apostolic authorship attributed to them by later generations.

This provocative and meticulously researched study challenges the traditional timeline of the gospels, arguing that the final forms of the gospels according to Mark, Matthew, Luke, John, the Gospel of Marcion, and the Acts of the Apostles were not products of the first century CE, but of the second. All students of the New Testament, theologians, and anyone interested in the historical foundations of Christianity are invited to join this wave of discovery challenging conventional wisdom and opening the door to deeper exploration and appreciation of the complex processes that gave birth to the New Testament.

Excellent new perspective on dating the Gospels

This is an excellent review of the issue of dating the Gospels/Acts and why they should be dated later than the current consensus. Litwa really knows his stuff!

novel insight from an excellent scholar

dr. Litwa offers a number of online courses also. He offers novel insight into the subject matter. The delivery is no-frills, packed with details. The voice actor does a good job, too.
