متن يادداشت

Papyrus Egerton 2 is an early Christian manuscript whose parallels to canonical gospels usually have been understood to derive from the gospel texts. Therefore Egerton has not been approached as a distinctive composition, nor as the product of a particular community that preserved it. The publication of an additional fragment, P. Koln 255, invites reconsideration of the document, now best called the Egerton Gospel. The text of the Egerton Gospel fragments is established anew in chapter one of the dissertation. The chapter includes an extensive apparatus of proposed restorations and an English translation. Discussion of Egerton in previous scholarship is examined in chapters two and three. Chapter two provides a general survey of scholarly opinion and a critical discussion of Egerton's relationship to specific synoptic texts. Egerton should not be presumed to be any more secondary than its synoptic counterparts. Egerton's account of Jesus' healing of a leper plausibly represents a separate tradition which did not undergo Markan redaction. Chapter three provides a critical discussion of Egerton's relationship to specific texts in John. Compositional choices made by Egerton's author suggest that he or she did not make use of the Gospel of John in canonical form. Close parallels in the wording of Jesus' sayings are plausibly explained by the hypothesis that Egerton and John draw independently upon a common source of sayings traditions. Egerton's narrative parallels derive from a stock of traditions that were found generally in early Christianity; they are developed similarly in Egerton and John owing to a shared milieu. The exegesis in chapter four examines the composition of material in Egerton for clues to the thematic interests of the author and/or community that chose to preserve and transmit this particular text. In chapter five, other choices made by the author of the Egerton Gospel are examined: the author chose to write a narrative gospel and evidently to depict the figure of Jesus as a prophet in continuity with Moses, as a usd\theta\varepsilon\iota o\varsigma\ \alpha\nu\acute\eta\rho.usd Chapter six uses the findings about literary and thematic interests in Egerton to sketch a plausible situation for the document and its community. The Egerton Gospel is reasonably understood as a document produced by Hellenistic Jewish followers of Jesus who promoted continuity between Judaism and the Jesus movement. It is understandable in a first-century context because its features have their closest analogues in that period.
