Are the Synoptic Gospels at odds with Early Christian art andarchaeology? Art and archaeology cannot provide the material basis 'tosecure the irrefutable inner continuity' of the Christian beginnings(Erich Dinkler); can the Synoptic Gospels step in? Their narratives, however, are as absent from the first hundred and fourty years of earlyChristianity as are their visual imageries. 'Many of the datesconfidently assigned by modern experts to the New Testament documents', especially the Gospels, rest 'on presuppositions rather than facts'(J.A.T. Robinson). The present volume is the first systematic study ofall available early evidence that we have about the first witness to ourGospel narratives, Marcion of Sinope. It evaluates our commonly knownarguments for dating the Synoptic Gospels, elaborates on Marcion'scrucial role in the Gospel making and argues for a re-dating of theGospels to the years between 138 and 144 AD.
