Description: Is Q a Galilean text representing a non-messianic and non-apocalyptic Galilean branch of the early Jesus movement? Simon J. Joseph proposes a new working model for understanding the Jewish ethnicity, community, provenance, and compositional traits in Q - the earliest and most reliable source for the Palestinian Jewish Jesus movment.
