Synopsis
“Religious movements often tend to run parallel to each other in their development, whether they are completely independent or whether, as in the case of the two here compared, one has developed within the tradition of an older faith. Familiarity or wealth of historical information in one supplements or illuminates the other. These two are compared for the instruction which their likenesses offer, and for the differences of setting which are also significant…”
Henry Cadbury’s Swarthmore Lecture from 1957.
