Location: Collection Bibelarchiv- Birnbaum. Karlsruhe, Baden. Germany
Comments: Paperback 8vo, XLIX and 446 pp. Illustrations, maps and plans. XXX pages of Introduction. Translator‘s preface dated London, 1962: He mentions that he made some revisions and corrections to the 1956 Ed. Schonfield places the Scriptures in a different order after his own theory of NT- chronology. Paul wrote e. g. 4 letters to the Corinthians and one to Asian Christians (Ephesos). The absence of Chapter- and verse numberings challenges the reader.
