"While Peter, Paul, and increasingly also James have dominated New Tesatment scholarship, Joseph Barnabas, the Levite from Cyprus, has received comparatively little attention. This study seeks to relieve Joseph Barnabas of this undeserved obscurity and give him due recognition as a founding member of the Christian church, pioneer of the mission to the Gentiles, and patron of the apostle Paul."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Barnabas was born in Cyprus. His original name was Josses or Joseph. He was a close companion of Jesus. Because of his devotion and loyalty to Jesus, other apostles surnamed him 'Barnabas' which means 'Son of Encouragement' (Acts 4:36-37). He traveled with Jesus and wrote down what Jesus had said. The Bible refers to him as "an apostle" (Acts 14:14), and "a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith" (Acts 11:24). It also says: "if he comes to you, receive him" (Colossians 4:10). After Jesus had left this world, many people wrote about his life and teachings. They are known as Gospels. Over one hundred gospels were written. The author of one of the Gospels was Apostle Barnabas. The Gospel of Barnabas was the Canonical Gospel in the Churches of Alexandria for about three centuries. In 325 A. D. the Council of Nicea canonized 4 Gospels for the New Testament of the Bible. The Gospel of Barnabas was not one of them. The Council of Nicea not only rejected the Gospel of Barnabas but ordered it to be burned. Those who refused to burn their copy of the Gospel of Barnabas; they were burned along with the book. Barnabas was a very respectable close companion of Jesus. His Gospel should provide us with reliable information about the true sayings of Jesus. Every person who has respect for Jesus should read this book. Unfortunately the book is not easily available. With "Freedom of information" in mind, this book is now presented to the public.

In this groundbreaking study, Michael Cosby uncovers the unknown history of the transformation of the Apostle Barnabas from a peacemaker to a warrior saint. Modern Cypriot beliefs about Barnabas diverge significantly from the New Testament depiction of the man as a leader involved in creative solutions to conflicts in the early church. Over the centuries, he morphed into a symbol of Greek Cypriot nationalism, bequeathing his power to the archbishop in Nicosia. This modern St. Barnabas resulted from a complicated blend of religious and political maneuvering at key points in the history of Cyprus. Orthodox clergy made a consensus-builder complicit in the ongoing strife between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots. Cosby's thought-provoking book challenges readers to ponder their own beliefs to sort through what is history and what is legend. ""New Testament scholar Michael Cosby has written a uniquely wonderful book, a combination of an academic biography of the biblical Barnabas, a surgical dissection of the modern legend of the saint, and a sympathetic and personal account of how and why Cypriots have turned their bridge-building apostle into a bridge-burning nationalist. In destroying the myth of the warrior Barnabas, Professor Cosby seeks to restore to all Cypriots something greater: the Barnabas of peace and understanding."" --Christopher Schabel, University of Cyprus ""Topics touching on religiously based national beliefs require great care in both research and presentation. Cosby has done his due diligence in searching out the New Testament roots and later historical elaborations of the life and ministry of the early Christian known as Joseph Barnabas. His meticulous examination of data regarding this saint is presented in a very readable fashion, but he also demonstrates great sensitivity to the religious sentiments of modern Orthodox Cypriots."" --Mary Ann Stachow, SBS, Xavier University of Louisiana ""How did a first-century peacemaker become a twenty-first century warrior-saint? In Creation of History, Michael Cosby explores the relationship between history, memory, and myth through the fascinating story of St. Barnabas. Anyone interested in the New Testament, Cyprus, and the Orthodox Church will benefit from his compelling narrative."" --John Fea, author of Why Study History: Reflecting on the Importance of the Past. ""Professor Cosby's work masterfully brings to light these two versions of Barnabas, the New Testament saintly personality, the peacemaker and spiritual mentor of Paul, and the socially constructed Barnabas of Cypriot history."" --Kyriacos Markides, from the Foreword Michael Cosby is Professor of New Testament and Greek at Messiah College in Grantham, Pennsylvania. He is the author of Interpreting Biblical Literature: An Introduction to Biblical Studies, Apostle on the Edge: An Inductive Approach to Paul, and other books and articles. As a Senior Fulbright Fellow, he conducted research in Cyprus on the Apostle Barnabas.

Although the Epistle of Barnabas may be best known for its Two Ways Tradition or its anti-Jewish use of Scripture, its contents reveal much that will be of interest to anyone studying Christian origins. In keeping with other contributions to the Apostolic Fathers Commentary Series, this volume not only introduces readers to critical issues such as date, authorship, and opponents but also reflects on the multifaceted scriptural interpretations at play within the argument and sketches the theological beliefs that underlie the text. The commentary also provides a fresh English translation of the Greek text while endeavoring to highlight the internal literary connections within the Epistle of Barnabas. In so doing, this book provides a knowledgeable and accessible interpretation of a fascinating early Christian document.
