Robert E. Van Voorst is one of the most popular and richest Teacher who was born on June 5, 1952 in Netherlands, United States.
In Jesus Outside the New Testament (2000), Van Voorst starts by outlining the history of research into extra-Biblical sources for the historical Jesus and its relation to the hypothesis that Jesus did not exist, which he notes is generally rejected by modern scholars. He goes on to consider references to Jesus in classical writings, Jewish writings, hypothetical sources of the canonical Gospels, and extant Christian writings outside the New Testament. The book includes translations of key passages discussed, including the entire Gospel of Thomas. Van Voorst concludes that non-Christian sources provide “a small but certain corroboration of certain New Testament historical traditions on the family background, time of life, ministry, and death of Jesus”, as well as “evidence of the content of Christian preaching that is independent of the New Testament”, while extra-biblical Christian sources give access to “some important information about the earliest traditions on Jesus”. However, New Testament sources remain central for “both the main lines and the details about Jesus’ life and teaching”.
He retired in 2018 as a Professor of New Testament Studies at Western Theological Seminary, in Holland, Michigan, and has published scholarly works in early Christian writings and New Testament Greek. He received his B.A. in Religion from Hope College in Holland, Michigan, his M.Div. from Western Theological Seminary, and his Ph.D. in New Testament from Union Theological Seminary in New York City. He has served at Lycoming College (Methodist) in Williamsport, PA, and was a visiting professor at Westminster College, Oxford, England. He has lectured to PhD students in Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China, on methods in biblical study.
