Gutwenger E. The Anti-Marcionite Prologues

5 (100%) 1 голосов

Статья Энгельберта Гутвенгера была опубликована в седьмом номере “Теологических исследований” за 1946 год, но не потеряла научной ценности до настоящего времени. Она посвящена проблеме так называемых “антимаркионитских прологов” к каноническим евангелиям. Поскольку распространение маркионитской ереси относительно неплохо изучено, и его опорные датировки в целом известны, данное обстоятельство позволяет попытаться примерно датировать время составления известных нам редакций канонических евангелий.

Gutwenger E. The Anti-Marcionite Prologues.

// Theological Studies 7, 1946. P. 393–409.

The so-called anti-Marcionite prologues have met with considerable interest since Dom Donatien De Bruyne published his article “Les plus anciens prologues latins des Évangiles”, in which he maintains that the old prologues to Mark, Luke, and John were written shortly after the Marcionite crisis and should, consequently, be of great historical interest, inasmuch as they show the tradition of the early Church concerning the authors of the Gospels. Harnack accepted De Bruyne’s thesis and gave as the approximate date of the prologues the years between 160 and 180.
Other scholars, however, refused to conform to the new discovery. But recently, it has become more and more customary to use the anti-Marcionite prologues in discussions about the authorship of the Gospels. Reading through the articles by De Bruyne and Harnack, I was struck by the scantiness of the proofs given to establish the venerable age of the prologues. In the present article, therefore, I should like to submit De Bruyne’s theory to a short criticism and to make some tentative suggestions about the date and origin of the prologues.
