This is Part 1 of an edited shortened version of a lecture on the DIDACHE that I recently gave to my "Tabor Research Community in our monthly Zoom meeting. This ancient manuscript, lost in ancient times and re-discovered in 1873, dates as early as 100 AD. It contains the earliest record of the "Teachings" of Jesus outside our New Testament--and I would argue it preserves material earlier than our N.T. gospels. And it preserves a distinctively "Non-Paul" message. It reflects the original 'Way" of the movement inaugurated by John the Baptist, the historical Jesus, and his brother James.
If you find this kind of in-depth study valuable I invite you to join my Tabor Research Community for lots more, discussions, my responses to messages, monthly Zoom meetings, and a fantastic and diverse group of historically oriented students of the Bible:
