Geis, Robert J.,

Exegesis and the Synoptics / Robert Geis. - 1 online resource (xii, 169 pages)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Discrepancy and contradiction -- Evangelion -- Applying Origen's exegetical method -- Hebraisms: earlier Gospel datings -- Towards an NT canon -- Augustine and harmonization -- Breakdown of harmonization -- Exegesis and skepticism.

Geis argues the differences in Synoptic accounts are explained by evidence that shows a Hebrew subtext, which the Greek translation misses. Geis also maintains Matthew's role as tax collector and record keeper makes the claim that he kept a cotemporaneous written account of Jesus quite credible, as well as accurate.
