About this book

This is a new edition of the late Bishop Neill's acclaimed book, revised and expanded by his former colleague Professor Wright, who has added a chapter covering New Testament scholarship of the last 25 years. It describes the historical development of New Testament criticism from 1861 (the year Lightfoot became Hulsean Professor of Divinity at Cambridge) to the present day, the contrasting personalities of scholars, and the permanent contributions made by various schools. The survey ends with an assessment of the position today.
