great summary Mark. As you said, it can be a helpful academic exercise, but I feel redaction criticism, or its 'parent' Form Critism gets itself tangled up sometimes - that it assumes or suggests the gospel authors are almost too creative; that critics have already decided what they will find - that the author is guilty and thay they will decide the penalty; and of course - redaction criticism of the gospels assumes a Markan priority which is not unanimously agreed.
ReplyDeleteGreat pod Mark.
Thanks very much, Trevor. I do hope to return to the issue again, and especially to the question of Marcan Priority and the Synoptic Problem, something of an interest of mine :)
