Q and the History of Early Christianity presents a wide-ranging examination of the key issues in Q studies. After seeking to establish the existence of Q, Christopher Tuckett proceeds to analyze the characteristic features of the Q material. He explores not only what we can learn about the possible 'theology' of Q, but also what we can learn about the social situation of the Christians who valued and preserved this material.
Tuckett provides discussions of John the Baptist in Q, the eschatology and Christology of Q, the nature of the polemic in Q. An attempt is made to determine how far Q is a 'wisdom' text; and how far Q reflects 'cynic' iceas.
