About the Book

As the inaugural volume in the Baylor-Mohr Siebeck Studies in Early Christianity series, Jens Schröter's celebrated From Jesus to the New Testament is now available for the first time in English. Schröter provides a rich narrative to Christian history by looking back upon the theological forces that created the New Testament canon. Through his textual, historical, and hermeneutical examination of early Christianity, Schröter reveals how various writings that form the New Testament's building blocks are all held together. Jesus not only bound the New Testament, but launched a theological project that resulted in the canon. Schröter's study will undoubtedly spark new discussion about the formation of the canon.

Review :
From Jesus to the New Testament is one of the most significant books on canonical issues to emerge in recent years. While somewhat more inclusive and erudite than other studies (especially Part i), Schröter presents a readable work that is both intellectually stimulating and understandable. --Arthur G. Patzia "Journal of Reformed Theology" Schröter's study will undoubtedly spark new discussion about the formation of the canon. -- "Theological Book Review" From Jesus to the New Testament is a stimulating monograph for multiple reasons, and should, I expect, elicit excitement for more volumes from the joint venture of Baylor and Mohr-Siebeck. The translation by Wayne Coppins is clear and readable, and he should be thanked for his work in making Schröter's work accessible. --Joshua W. Jipp, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School "Bulletin for Biblical Research" Every chapter in this collection has rich insights for students of the NT and early Christianity. Its methodological sophistication makes it a must read. --Pheme Perkins, Boston College "Theological Studies" This is an interesting collection of essays, which raises some fundamental historical, theological, and canonical issues. --Paul Foster, University of Edinburgh "The Expository Times"
