«Testimone oculare di Gesù» is the essay by Carsten P. Thiede and Matthew D'Ancona, published by Piemme in hardback (238 pages, in Italian).
The book argues that three papyrus fragments found in Luxor and kept in Oxford belong to a copy of the Gospel of Matthew datable to around AD 60. If the dating is correct, the evangelist could have been a contemporary of Jesus and the text would be direct testimony. The book analyses the palaeographic evidence and its implications.
The book was published in 1996. The cover subtitle is «La nuova sconvolgente prova sull'origine del Vangelo» and the subject areas are religion and history.
This essay is aimed at readers interested in the history of Christianity, biblical archaeology and the critical study of the gospels.
