Quotations from our authors:
About investigating Christ's attitude about the Sabbath is rejected by the form critics: "Form critics would regard this investigation as futile, since they view the Gospels' report of Christ's Sabbath teachings and activities, not as authentic historical accounts but as later reflections of the primitive Church. What Jesus Himself may have thought, they claim is impossible to ascertain." Pg. 18 - form critics
C.S. Mosna said that W. Rordorf gave "the rise of Sunday festivity a too-Christian origin, neglecting other userful elements and detatching it from its Jewish context." (Storia della domenica, pp. 41 and 5). - Jewish context of the Sabbath
"We see no justification for such historical skepticism, especially since a new quest for the historical Jesus has begun which casts shadows on previous methodologies and promises to find in the Gospels a much larger number of genuine deeds and words of Jesus." - Pg. 18 - historical skepticism
