In a\u00a0post on the blog Right Reason<\/a>, Glenn Peoples seeks to make the case that Paul quotes from the Gospel of Luke.<\/p>\n

The reference is to the connection between\u00a01 Timothy 5:17\u201318 and Luke 10:7.<\/span><\/p>\n

If one were to make the case that the Pastoral Epistles were by Paul, despite the\u00a0implausibility, then it could still be a case of Paul remembering a saying of Jesus and blurring it with what the Jewish Scriptures said. After all, Jesus was a\u00a0Jewish teacher, and so it should not surprise us to find that much of what is attributed to him is not unique, but a way of understanding the\u00a0Jewish Scriptures.<\/p>\n

More likely scenarios, however, take seriously the evidence that (1) Paul did not write 1 Timothy, and (2) Luke is quite possibly the last of the Gospels to be written, perhaps later even than Papias.<\/p>\n

But 1 Timothy could be later still.<\/p>\n

And so which seems more likely to you? That the author of 1 Timothy was influenced by the Gospel of Luke? That the Gospel of Luke was influenced by 1 Timothy? Or that both reflect knowledge of oral tradition which attributed this saying to Jesus?<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
