This groundbreaking book argues that the New Testament is not the product of a centuries-long process of development. Its history, Trobisch finds, is the history of a book-an all Greek Christian bible-published as early as the second century C. E. and intended by its editors to be read as awhole. Trobisch claims that this bible achieved wide circulation and formed the basis of all surviving manuscripts of the New Testament. | The First Edition of the New Testament by David Trobisch, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
