Abstract:
The study intends to focus on the criteria developed by J.R. Harris regarding the Testimonies, that is, biblical passages collected with messianic and anti- Jewish aims. In the context of the Hellenistic culture, where different collections of passages are drawn from authoritative and ancient texts, and in the oracular mentality, the first Christians wanted to give voice to the divine Scripture in order to announce Christ “according to the Scriptures”. Harris’s inquiry, accepted with both reservations and enthusiasm, remains valid and continues to question the exegetical and theological methodology used by the early Christians, with which they developed the first Christology and the first form of Christian apologetics.
