Book synopsis

Excerpt from The Oxyrhynchus Sayings of Jesus: Found in 1903 With the Sayings Called 'Logia' Found in 1897 The fragmentary Sayings of Jesus found in 1903 are discussed under the names New Sayings of Jesus and Fragment of a Lost Gospel, given to them by the Editors, in Section A and Section B respectively. Section C is on the Logia or Sayings found in 1897, and brought out in that year by the same Editors under the double title Logia Iesou, Sayings of our Lord. Section D contains a general Conclusion. A New Sayings Of Jesus With the New Sayings I was first made in a measure acquainted by an article on 'The New Christian Papyri,' contributed by Canon E. L. Hicks to the Manchester Guardian of the 18th June last (1904). Soon afterwards I read these Sayings and the Gospel Fragment as deciphered and expounded by the Editors, and put together my notes upon them. Some things have now been added from Dr. Swete's Lecture on the New Sayings, as published in the Expository Times of August, 1904. In the following studies I begin in each case with a reprint of the Greek from the Editors' transcript in minuscules, which, unlike their transcript in capitals, contains a number of conjectural additions. Their estimates of the spaces to be filled, as shown by dots which represent the missing letters, will be found to be apparently very exact, due allowance being made for letters of more or less than the average breadth, as W and I. The Editors and their advisers have done much toward the completion of the New Sayings, except the Third and the Fifth.
