Abstract
Richard Bauckham's Jesus and the Eyewitnesses represents a major advance in Gospel criticism and historical investigation into Jesus and Christian origins. It stands in refreshing contrast to the hypercriticism and skepticism, on the one hand, and the rather daring scholarship, on the other hand, that indulges in a remarkable amount of imagination in reconstructing hypothetical Christian communities 1 and backdating second-and third-century Gospels and Gospel-like sources into the first century. 2 There are two aspects of this stimulating study that I shall discuss briefly. These are form criticism and source criticism, both of which Professor Bauckham treats at length but at different points and in different ways.
