The Making of the New Testament offers significant insights into the organic coherence between the ministry of Jesus, the rise and growth of the early Church, and the formation of the NT canon. The author delineates a comprehensive picture of the whole process of the composition, transmission, collection, and eventual establishment of the NT writings into an authoritative canon. Through interaction with current scholarship on the early Church and the New Testament canon, he provides an inclusive picture of the key factors, criteria, meaning, and value of the emergence of the NT canon. The concluding chapter takes up the production and classification of manuscripts, the reliability of the NT text, and a review of the current English translations of the New Testament.
