NT Criticism Quote

Michael Bird citing Markus Bockmuehl citing C.K. Barrett citing Edward Hoskyns.  If you don’t already read Euangelion, you probably should.  Michael Bird gives a daily mix of reading summaries, insider NT info, and journal TOC’s.  It’s a great glimpse at some happenings in NT studies. 

Hoskyns apparently says this of his endeavor in NT criticism: 

“You look down your critical miscroscope at the New testament text with a view to describing the religious life of the first-century Christians, and you find that God is looking back at you through the microscope and declaring you to be a sinner” (Bockmuehl, Seeing the Word, 147).
