Study classic scholarship
Zahn, a German professor and writer born in 1838, represents the best of conservative scholarship in the early twentieth-century. As the The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge notes:
His literary activity has been great, commensurate with his responsibility as virtual leader of the conservatives in New-Testament criticism. [2]
When last reproduced in print, it received this recommendation from S.L. Johnson Jr. in Bibliotheca Sacra:
Theodor Zahn was Professor of New Testament Exegesis in Erlangen University. He was an outstanding interpreter of the New Testament, but to most in the English-speaking world he is known best for his Introduction to the New Testament. It is without doubt the finest work of its kind. Its conservative viewpoint makes it a must for all diligent conservative students of the New Testament. It should be read and re-read until it has been digested. One may not follow Zahn in all of his views, yet they are always stimulating.[3]
