The Bible is composed of two main parts : The Old Testament
and the New Testament.
"The former contains 39 books, as reckoned by Protestants,
with a supplement known as the Apocrypha, the Roman Catholic,
Anglican, and Eastern Orthodox Churches include the Apocrypha
in the Old Testament, and therefore assign 53 books to ii. The New
Testament contains 27 books upon which number all Churches
agree. Since Jews accept only the Old Testament and reject both the
Apocrypha (found only in Greek translations, not in the original
Hebrew) and the New Testament, they understand the term 'Bible'
to mean the 39 books of the Hebrew. (or Palestinian) Canon,
recognized by Protestants.
The Hebrew Bible consists of three parts
1.
Deuteronomy ;
The Law : Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers,
2. The Prophets : (A) Farmer Prophets : Joshua, Judges,
Samuel, Kings; (B) Litter Prophets : Isaiah, Jeremiah,
Ezekiel, and the. Twelve Minor Prophets.
3. The Writings (Hagiographa) : (A) Psalms, Proverbs, Job;
(B) Ruth, Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, Lamentations,
Esther; (D) Daniel, Ezra-Nehemiah-Chronicles.
The three divisions mark successive canonizations : the Law
(about 400 B.C.); the Prophets (about 200 B.C.); and the
Writings (about 90 A.D.)"1

The New Testament is the second part of the Bible. In this sec-
tion. we are going to look into the New Testament under the

. 1.uidance of some distinguished scholars of Christianity.

2 THE CH Jl IST AS SEE:-,1 IN THE SOURCES OF THE CHRISTIAN BELIEFS
The General Features of the New Testament
The New Testament is an unhomogeneous supplement to the Old
Testament:
Frederic Grant says:
''The earliest Christians did not think of their sacred books as

forming a 'New' Testament (or the documentation of a new Cove-
nar.t) distinct from the Old : the two were one and the same and

continuous. 'The Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms' (Luke
24 : 44) - or, better, as the third class, the 'Writings' - were
perfectly familiar to all Jews, including the Christian Jews in
Palestine and elsewhere, and also to all converted proselytes, who
already had been attached to the Jewish synagogue before their

conversion to Christianity. When the early Christian writings ap-
peared - Paul's epistles, which were read publicly at the

assemblies for worship (Col. 4 : 16), came first, then other
writings, epistles, homilies, and gospels - they were looked upon
as proper additions, supplementary to the lections from the Law
and the Prophets, which were read each week in both Jewish
synagogue and Christian Church.. When we turn to the New
Testament we do not expect to find a fixed and definite system of

doctrine, or a fully articulated �cheme or plan of Church organiza-
tion. Quite the contrary : we expect to find - and we do

find - anticipations·· suggestions that were never followed out,
tentative and experimental solutions that were destined to be
overlooked and forgotten in the onward-moving development of
the Church's life .•

It is, (the N.T.), of course, not all one uniform book, but a col-
lection. It represents not one sole dominating iew, but a variety of

views, so that one can trace with considerable accuracy the dif-
ferent directions in which Christian thought and feeling advanced,

as well as - with some limitations - the geographical and
numerical expansion of the Church, and also the stages in the
earliest development of the Church's theology and ethics, worship
and organization.' '

THE SOlJRCES OF HIE CHRISTIA� RELIEF<,
Views of the Christian Sects About
the New Testament
Gunter Lanczkowski writes:

3

"The doctrines which the various Churches and schools of
theological though! use, however, to establish the spiritual
authority of the New Testament, differ considerably one from the
other. The Roman Catholic Church holds fast to the doctrine of
Inspiration which was explicitly confirmed at the Vatican Council
held in Rome in 1869-70, according to which the canonical books
of the Old and New Testament were 'written under the inspiration
of the Holy Spirit, have God as their Author and as such have been
delivered to the Church.' Orthodox believers in the Protestant
Church also subscribe to the doctrine of Inspiration •• Liberal
Protestants regard the books of the New Testament as records of
che beginning of the Christian religion which are, like any other
ancient historical documents, open to scientific invescigacion and
philological criticism. "
1

The Orthodox believe, as Timothy Ware statts, that:
"The Bible is the supreme· expression of God's revelation to
man, and Christians must always be 'People of che Book' .. The
Orthodox Church hao; the same New Testament as the rest of
Christendoms. As its authoritative text for the Old Testament, it
uses the ancient Greek translation known as the Sep1•1agint..

Christianity, if true, has nothing to fear from honest inquiry. Or-
thodoxy, while regarding the Church as the authoritative inter-
preter of Scripture, does not forbid the critical and historical study

of the Bible, although hitherto Orthodox scholars have not been
prominent in chis field. "J
The Contents of the New Testament
According to Gunter Lanczkowski
"The New Testament contains the following 27 books : The
Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John; The Acts of
the Aposdes;

The epistles of Paul to the Romans. Corinthians (2). Galatians,
Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, Thessalonians (2). lo Timothy
(2), Titus, Philemon and the Hebrews; The Catholic Epistle of
Peter (2), John (3), James and Jude;
The Revelation (Apocalypse) of John:
For 1he last 150 years scholars have recognised that the first three
gospels differ stylistically and materially from the gospel of John
and that they are closely related to one another. Because they nted
to be studied together they have been called the 'synoplic' gosprls.
Their contacts with one another are the basis of the 'theory of the
two sources' according to which the shortesl of the gospels. thal of
Mark, was used by the two longer ones and therfore represents one
of the sources of Matthew and Luke. Matthew and Luke also share
certain special material, however, consist.ing almost entirely of

words of Jesus. The material common to these two gospels is at-
tribuced to a second source which is described as a coUection of

sayings or speeches. The synoptic gospels are closely related both in
their structure and their subject maner. They owe their existence to
the overwhelming impact of the earthly life and message of Jcsus.
as transmitted by the Church. They choose the form of an itinerary

for their historical narrative.They link up Jesus's first public ap-
pearance with the work of John the Baptist, they describe his

travels through Galilee. they give an account of his preaching,
which reached its climax in the Seromn on the Mount. and of bis
miracles. Finally. they describe the journey to Jerusalem leading lo
his condemnation .. The synoptic gosples close with an account of

the appearances of the Risen lord. The message, which Jesus pro-
claims, partly in the form of parables is that of the imminent irrup-
tion of the kingdom of God, which he associates with the preaching

of John the Baptis, who said

'Repent, the kingdom of heaven is at hand"
(Matthew 3 : 2).
According to Jesus what is required is· a com_pletc 'change of
outlook and this can be broughr about only by following two great
commandments (Matthew 22, 31 ff; cf. Mark 12, 30 0:
'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and thy

whole soul and thy whole mind. This is ttae greatest of the com-
mandments and the first. And the second. its like. is this. Thou shalt


love thy neighbour as thy self.·
Jesus interprets his new commandment not as a depanure from

but as a fulfilment <,f the Old Testament Law (Matthew 5: 17):

'Do not think that I have come to set aside the law and the pro-
phets; I have not come to set them aside but 10 bring them to

perfection .. '
Five books of the New Testam.ent have co.me down to us under
the name of John : the Gospel, three Epistles, and the Revelation.
The Gospel and the first Epistle were probably written by the same
author. Since the end of the second century the Church has referred
to him as Jesus's favourite disciple. The Gospel according to John
is notably different from the synoptics. It contains no accounts of
the Nativity but begins with a prologue in which the origin of Jesus,
is traced to the eternity of God and in which he is described as the
Word made flesh, the Logos (1, 1-413 ).
