And have you read Three Views on the Origins of the Synoptic Gospels? If, so what did you think?

And have you read Three Views on the Origins of the Synoptic Gospels? If, so what did you think?

First, he takes the time to explain the nature of the problem before moving on to present the solutions. Second, his solutions is very much in line with my naive resolution that I have operated under. I had known something of the problems, had seen a way through, but had never formally looked into the matters until the in the last six months. In doing so, I learned that there is actually a name to the path I was following, and Goodacre is out ahead of me. Finally, he has developed some really great, accessible resources, ranging from his books to the podcasts available through his NT Pod, http://podacre.blogspot.com/. The more recent longer ones are actual lectures from Duke. It has been great to hear how he facilitates discussion and uses humor as a professor, lots to learn from him.
