Oxford Handbook of the Synoptic Gospels, 2023

This article moves away from questions of dependence or autonomy to show that comparison of the texts' style and content is fruitful for understanding both Thomas and the Synoptic Gospels. When we read the Synoptics against Thomas, some of the central characteristics of Mark, Matthew, and Luke stand out in higher relief. Differences in theology, narrative structures, genre, and approaches to community formation combine to confirm that early gospel writers had a variety of choices about their modes of representation of the meaning(s) of Jesus. As part of its pattern of distance from Judaism, Thomas shows that it was possible to present Jesus as somehow removed from the thought world of Scripture, even as a source of revelatory or prophetic information.

M.A. - International Relations Thesis (Extract), 2009

Palestine’s quest for peace and a sovereign state is one of the most intriguing challenges of international relations in the 21st century. The challenge owes to the protracted Arab-Israel conflict that has hitherto lasted for over half a century, over and above an unobstructed rise of Islamism in the Arab world. It is unfortunate that, despite vigorous efforts at establishing peace and building a viable and independent Palestinian state, a stalemate has always been the inevitable eventuality. Besides a critical assessment of the impediments to peace and statebuilding in Palestine, this research endeavours to analyze the repercussions of the rise of Islamism in the Arab world on the Palestinian dilemma. The study examines developments since the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993 to the current state of affairs. Moreover, the study relies mainly on secondary data and, consequently, a qualitative analysis. As a final point, this research challenges some of the articulated and most distinguished solutions as areas that need further demystification to ascertain their achievability.
