I have excluded the article by Gerhard Maier which is in German.

Aune’s
I’m for France
Aune. Hands down. Mostly just because it’s Aune. All the topics sound interesting.
Aune has said his peace elsewhere. I say give it to Carson on the fourth Gospel.
I’d prefer either:
“Historical Tradition in the Fourth Gospel: After Dodd, What?”
’cause Johannine texts never get as much attention as the synoptics…
“Scripture, Tradition and the History of the Infancy Narratives of Matthew”
’cause Yeshua’s infancy is usually forgotten…
