The OLD TESTAMENT: begins with the five books of Moses, the "Pentateuch". Moses authored Exodus through Detuteronomy, as an eyewitness. In my humble opinion, he compiled and edited ancient records from eyewitness of the events to form Genesis. The chronology followed here if that of The Chronology of the Old Testament, 15th edition, by * Dr. Floyd Nolen Jones, Th.D., Ph.D., April 2005, Master Books; ISBN 089051416X.

NT |
The NEW TESTAMENT: begins with four gospels written by three eyewitnesses and Luke. Luke carefully interviewed eyewitness and recorded their accounts. The parallel gospels are presented in four parts: g1, g2, g3, and g4, an intricately detailed harmonization and comparison (following Jones). The interwoven or merged gospels are in one document, as if by collaboration by the four. * These follow An Analytical RED LETTER HARMONY of the Four Gospels , 2nd Ed., by * Dr. Floyd Nolen Jones, Th.D., Ph.D., 2004, King Word Press, ISBN 0-9700328-8-9. |
