What Jesus Didn't Say

Focuses on the inauthentic words of Jesus—not only those thought to be clear inventions, but also sayings that exhibit noteworthy alterations to their original form and intent. For his selection, Lüdemann uses sayings that are attributed to Jesus after his crucifixion, presuppose a pagan rather than a Jewish audience, involve situations in a post-Easter community, and reflect the editorial influence of the author.
