Reviews

Dr. Trobisch has produced a thought-provoking and significant study that will surely challenge the traditional understanding of the formation of the canon....The First Edition of the New Testament could have relevance for years to come. --Faith & Mission<br>

David Trobisch has written a short but important book on one of the most influential happenings in the history of Christianity: the putting together and issuing of the New Testament. * Theology, 01/11/2001 * It is a fascinating enquiry and a strong case, beautifully argued. * Theology, 01/11/2001 * This important book addresses a very interesting question which has never occurred to a lot of people. ... There is plenty of meat for debate here. * Reviews in Religion & Theology, vol.8/4 *
