One from the Beginning: A Proposed Apologetic for the Growth of the Church from AD 30-250

The Johannine models, which present Mary’s dignity as the “Mother of God,” shed new light on the Lord’s prayer. Luke’s Our Father contains three requests concerning human needs and two requests directed towards God, which is reflected in the first Johannine model 3+2. Matthew’s Pater poster consists of five requests from Luke and two additional requests that only appear in the Gospel of Matthew. This corresponds to the second Johannine model 5+2. In light of the Johannine models, “Our Father” was used by Matthew, who supplemented Luke’s version.

Revelations of Ideology: Apocalyptic Class Politics in Early Roman Palestine

For the last 150 years the Gospel of Marcion has been considered to be an abbreviated edition of the canonical Luke. This article renews the reverse hypothesis of Marcion's priority to Luke, Luke therefore being a revised and enlarged edition of Marcion. The arguments include a critique of the traditional view, based primarily on its failure to verify Marcion's alleged editorial concept on the basis of his text, and to solve the problem what Marcion would have done with Acts. On the other hand, the beginning of Luke (esp. 1.1–4; 4.16–30) suggests that the differences between both editions are best understood as Lukan additions to Marcion rather than Marcionite abbreviations of Luke. This Lukan, anti-Marcionite revision is very close to the Four-Gospel-collection and first created the unity of Luke–Acts.
