The Gospel of Marcion, called by its adherents the Gospel of the Lord, was a text used by the mid-2nd century Christian teacher Marcion of Sinope to the exclusion of the other gospels. Its reconstructed fragments now appear among the New Testament apocrypha. Marcion's teaching was condemned as heresy in the year 144. So many Catholic Christian apologists wrote treatises against Marcion after his death, in addition to the noted work of Tertullian, that it has been possible to reconstruct almost the whole of Marcion's ''Gospel of the Lord'' from their quotations. Marcion, then, is known only through his critics, who considered his doctrines a deviation from proto-orthodox Christianity. == Relationship to the Gospel of Luke == There are two possible relationships between Marcion's gospel and the Gospel of Luke; either Marcion revised a previously existing Gospel of Luke to fit his own agenda or else his "Gospel of the Lord" pre-dated the Gospel of Luke as we have it today and was in fact the basis for it. ;Marcion's gospel as a revision of Luke's Church Fathers wrote, and the majority of modern scholars agree, that Marcion edited Luke to fit his own theology, Marcionism. The late 2nd -century writer Tertullian noted that Marcion, "expunged (the Gospel of Luke ) all the things that oppose his view... but retained those things that accord with his opinion".〔Tertullian, ''Adversus Marcionem'' 4.6.2〕 According to this view, Marcion eliminated the first two chapters of Luke concerning the nativity, and began his gospel at Capernaum making modifications to the remainder suitable to Marcionism. The differences in the texts below highlight the Marcionite view that, first, Jesus did not follow the Prophets and, second, the earth is evil. ;Marcion's gospel as pre-dating Luke's In 1881 Charles B. Waite〔Charles B. Waite (1881) ''History of the Christian Religion to the Year Two-Hundred''〕 suggested that Marcion's Gospel may have preceded Luke's Gospel. John Knox in ''Marcion and the New Testament'' (1942) also defends this hypothesis. In the 2006 book ''Marcion and Luke-Acts: a defining struggle'', Joseph B Tyson makes a case for not only Luke but also Acts (see Luke-Acts) being responses to Marcion rather than Marcion's gospel being a rewrite of Luke.〔(Joseph B Tyson ''Marcion and Luke-Acts: A Defining Struggle'' )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gospel of Marcion」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
