Overview

“In St. Matthew are found about 112 words, and in St. Luke (without the Acts) about 261, which occur in these gospels and do not occur elsewhere in the New Testament.” Harnack prefaced New Testament Studies, vol. 2: The Sayings of Jesus with those words, analyzing the instances of each of those words within those two gospels. Adolph Harnack’s linguistic and historical investigation of Matthew and Luke are thought-provoking and provide a fresh way to see the words of Jesus as told in those two New Testament resources.
