Testimonies

Excerpt from Testimonies Vol. 2. Matthew of the New Testament and the book itself with the much disputed Logia upon which Papias commented. These Logia were now conceded to be Old Testament Oracles of the Lord and not as we had at one time supposed a collection of the Sayings of Jesus. This important conclusion had already been reached by previous students notably by an anonymous writer on the Oracles of Papias in 1894 by Prof. Burkitt in his book The Gospel History and its Transmission in 1906 and by Dr E. S. Selwyn in The Oracles of the New Testament in 1911.. About the Publisher. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at forgottenbooks.
