Sinopsis

Explore the scholarly journey through the Gospels from a unique Jewish perspective. This volume introduces Montefiore’s distinctive approach to the Synoptic Gospels, highlighting how Rabbinic study informs readings of Mark, Matthew, and Luke.

The author explains the book’s aims and acknowledges the collaboration with Israel Abrahams, detailing translation choices and the plan to present each Gospel with its own translation before the accompanying commentary. The work situates the Gospels in their Jewish context, discusses sources, and notes the influence of leading scholars while admitting the author’s own limits and ambitions. Readers gain insight into how modern criticism, historical context, and textual study shape our understanding of the Synoptics.

Excerpt from The Synoptic Gospels, Vol. 1 of 3

I have sufficiently explained the nature and object of my book in the Introduction and in the opening words of the commentary upon Mark. It is unnecessary to recapitulate what is there said.

It had been for many years the desire of my friend Mr Israel Abrahams, Reader in Talmudic and Rabbinic Literature in the University of Cambridge, and myself to join together in some work upon the New Testament. The Additional Notes which he is going to contribute to the present book will be a partial fulfil ment of our old desire. I had greatly hoped that these Notes, in which Mr Abrahams' wealth of Rabbinic learning will be used to illustrate and explain the Gospel text, would have appeared together with my own commentary. I keenly trust, though this hope has been, to my deep regret, disappointed, that they will appear (as the third and concluding volume of the work) before the end of 1910. It is right to add that while Mr Abrahams and I are in general accord in our estimate of the Gospels, he is in no way responsible for what I have written, and does not, as a matter of fact, agree with every part of it.

Excerpt from The Synoptic Gospels, Vol. 1 of 3

The Country Parson. as he doth not so study others as to neglect the grace of God in himself and what the Holy Spirit teacheth him, so doth he assure himself that God in all ages hath had his servants, to whom he hath revealed his Truth as well as to him; and that as one Country doth not bear all things, that there may be a Commerce, so neither hath God opened or will open all to one, that there may be a, traffick in knowledge between the servants of God for the planting both of love and humility.

The Humble, Meek, Merciful, Just, Pious and Devout Souls are everywhere of one Religion; and when Death has taken off the Mask, they will know one another, though the divers Liveries they wear here makes them Strangers.
