- At 190 pages, this is the first book-length treatment in any language of Jesus' authentic sayings via a gender lens. It required an exhaustive survey of prior Hellenistic Greek and Hebrew literature in order to prove Jesus' rhetorical innovation. It then surveyed not only early Christian but also early Jewish contemporaneous texts to argue that Jesus' gender-levelling speech patterns had an impact on later authors, and that many of these later authors were uncomfortable and modified Jesus' gender-pairing. It also made text-critical discoveries that may inform future critical editions of Q.
