'''Kritik teks''' adalah salah satu metode [[Hermeneutika Alkitab|penafsiran]] [[Alkitab]] yang mempelajari [[teks]] yang ada secara terperinci untuk memahami makna yang terkandung di dalamnya.
 
Ketika seseorang mencoba mempelajari suatu teks Alkitab dari beberapa terjemahan yang berbeda, tidak jarang ia menemukan bagian yang berbeda antara dua terjemahan. Hal ini dapat terjadi karena beberapa macam hal, antara lain:<ref name="Biblical Exegesis">{{en}} John H. Hayes dan Carl R. Holladay. (tahun tidak diketahui). ''Biblical Exegesis : A Beginner's handbook (revised edition)''. London : Westminster John Knox Press.''</ref>
* Perbedaan sumber asal.
* Perbedaan interpretasi pada saat menerjemahkan.
* Kesalahan yang tidak disengaja pada saat menerjemahkan atau menyalin ulang sebuah teks.

Biblical criticism, defined as the treatment of biblical texts as natural rather than supernatural artifacts, grew out of the rationalism of the 17th and 18th centuries. In the 19th century it was divided between the [[higher criticism]], the study of the composition and history of biblical texts, and [[lower criticism]], the close examination of the text to establish their original or "correct" readings. These terms are largely no longer used, and contemporary criticism has seen the rise of new perspectives which draw on literary and multidisciplinary sociological approaches to address the meaning(s) of texts and the wider world in which they were conceived.
 
A division is still sometimes made between [[historical criticism]] and [[literary criticism]]. Historical criticism seeks to locate the text in history: it asks such questions as when the text was written, who the author/s might have been, and what history might be reconstructed from the answers. Literary criticism asks what audience the authors wrote for, their presumptive purpose, and the development of the text over time.
 
Historical criticism was the dominant form of criticism until the late 20th century, when biblical critics became interested in questions aimed more at the meaning of the text than its origins and developed methods drawn from mainstream literary criticism. The distinction is frequently referred to as one between diachronic and synchronic forms of criticism, the former concerned the development of texts through time, the latter treating texts as they exist at a particular moment, frequently the so-called "final form", meaning the Bible text as we have it today.

== Sejarah ==
Kritik teks sudah dimulai dari zaman kuno tetapi metode kritik teks modern untuk [[Alkitab]] [[Kristen]] yaitu [[Perjanjian Lama]] dan [[Perjanjian Baru]] berawal dari rasionalisme abad ke-17 dan ke-18 dan dikembangkan dalam konteks pendekatanan ilmiah kepada humanitas (terutama sejarah) yang tumbuh pada abad ke-19.<!-- Studies of the Old and New Testaments were often independent of each other, largely due to the difficulty of any single scholar having a sufficient grasp of the many languages required or of the cultural background for the different periods in which texts had their origins.

== Alkitab Ibrani/Perjanjian Lama ==
[[Berkas:Title page of the "Histoire critique du vieux testament" by Richard Simon.jpg|jmpl|lurus|Halaman judul "Critical History" tulisan [[:en:Richard Simon (priest)|Richard Simon]] (1685), suatu karya awal kritik Alkitab]]
Kritisisme Alkitab modern dimulai pada abad ke-17 oleh para filsuf dan teolog —[[Thomas Hobbes]], [[:en:Benedict Spinoza|Benedict Spinoza]], [[:en:Richard Simon (priest)|Richard Simon]] dan lain-lain — yang mempertanyakan asal usul teks [[Alkitab]], terutama [[Pentateukh]] (lima kitab pertama [[Perjanjian Lama]], yakni [[Kitab Kejadian|Kejadian]], [[Kitab Keluaran|Keluaran]], [[Kitab Imamat|Imamat]], [[Kitab Bilangan|Bilangan]], dan [[Kitab Ulangan|Ulangan]]). Secara spesifik, dipertanyakan siapa penulis kitab-kitab ini; menurut tradisi pengarangnya adalah [[Musa]], tetapi para kritikus ini melihat ada kontradiksi dan inkonsistensi dalam teks yang membuat mereka menentang [[:en:Mosaic authorship|kepengarangan Musa]]. Pada abad ke-18 [[Jean Astruc]] (1684–1766), seorang dokter Prancis, berupaya membantah para kritikus itu. Menggunakan metode [[kritik teks]] yang sudah dipakai untuk meneliti teks-teks Yunani dan Romawi, ia menemukan apa yang diyakininya sebagai sejumlah dokumen terpisah dalam [[Kitab Kejadian]], berasal dari gulungan-gulungan asli tulisan Musa, yang sebagaimana empat penulis menghasilkan empat kitab Injil, merupakan catatan-catatan yang saling melengkapi. Generasi-generasi berikutnya, menurut Astruc, menggabungkan dokumen-dokumen asli ini untuk menghasilkan kitab Kejadian yang ada sekarang, di mana secara sekilas menunjukkan inkonsistensi dan kontradiksi sebagaimana diamati oleh Hobbes dan Spinoza.
<!--
Astruc's methods were adopted by German scholars such as [[Johann Gottfried Eichhorn]] (1752–1827) and [[Wilhelm Martin Leberecht de Wette]] (1780–1849) in a movement which became known as the [[higher criticism]] (to distinguish it from the far longer-established close examination and comparison of individual manuscripts, called the [[lower criticism]]); this school reached its apogee with the influential synthesis of [[Julius Wellhausen]] (1844–1918) in the 1870s, at which point it seemed to many that the Bible had at last been fully explained as a human document.
 
The implications of "higher criticism" were not welcomed by many religious scholars, not least the Catholic Church. [[Pope Leo XIII]] (1810–1903) condemned secular biblical scholarship in his encyclical ''[[Providentissimus Deus]]'';<ref>Fogarty, page 40.</ref> but in 1943 [[Pope Pius XII]] gave license to the new scholarship in his encyclical ''[[Divino afflante Spiritu]]'': "textual criticism ... [is] quite rightly employed in the case of the Sacred Books...Let the interpreter then, with all care and without neglecting any light derived from recent research, endeavor to determine the peculiar character and circumstances of the sacred writer, the age in which he lived, the sources written or oral to which he had recourse and the forms of expression he employed".<ref>[http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/pius_xii/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xii_enc_30091943_divino-afflante-spiritu_en.html Encyclical ''Divino afflante Spiritu''], 1943.</ref> Today the modern [[Catechism of the Catholic Church|Catechism]] states: "In order to discover the sacred authors' intention, the reader must take into account the conditions of their time and culture, the literary genres in use at that time, and the modes of feeling, speaking and narrating then current. For the fact is that truth is differently presented and expressed in the various types of historical writing, in prophetical and poetical texts, and in other forms of literary expression".<ref>[http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__PQ.HTM Catechism of the Catholic Church, Article III, section 110] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140816202810/http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__PQ.HTM |date=August 16, 2014 }}</ref>

Sebagaimana dalam naskah-naskah [[Perjanjian Baru]], munculnya perubahan, korupsi dan penghapusan, terutama dalam teks-teks Masoret, disebabkan oleh para juru tulis (''soferim''; ''scribes'') kuno yang tidak menangani kesalahan penyalinan secermat di waktu-waktu kemudian.<ref>Tov 2001, p. 9</ref>

=== Alkitab Ibrani sebagai Perjanjian Lama ===
 
Dalam melihat [[Alkitab Ibrani]] sebagai [[Perjanjian Lama]], hampir semua varian tekstual tidak bernilai penting dan tidak mempengaruhi doktrin kepercayaan. Professor [[:en:Douglas Stuart (biblical scholar)|Douglas Stuart]] menyatakan: "Secara jujur dapat dikatakan bahwa ayat-ayat, pasal-pasal, dan kitab-kitab dalam Alkitab akan terbaca umumnya sama, dan memberikan kesan yang sama kepada para pembaca, meskipun orang memasukkan semua bacaan ''alternatif'' yang ada ke dalam teks yang menjadi dasar terjemahan [bahasa Inggris] saat ini."<ref>{{cite book|last=Kaiser|first=Walter|title=The Old Testament Documents: Are They Reliable & Relevant?|year=2001|publisher=InterVarsity Press|page=48|url=https://books.google.com/?id=FbKhwkrCoD8C&pg=PA48&lpg=PA48#v=onepage&q&f=false|isbn=9780830819751}}</ref>
 
=== Perjanjian Baru ===
 
{{utama|Kritisisme Tekstual Perjanjian Baru}}
 
Teks kuno [[Perjanjian Baru]] meliputi lebih dari 5.800 naskah [[bahasa Yunani]] manuscripts, 10.000 naskah [[bahasa Latin]] dan 9.300 naskah dalam bahasa-bahasa kuno lain (termasuk [[bahasa Suryani]], [[bahasa Slavia]], [[bahasa Etiopia]] dan [[bahasa Armenia]]). Naskah-naskah itu memuat sekitar 300.000 varian tekstual, sebagian besar meliputi pertukaran urutan kata dan perbedaan penulisan yang trivial.<ref name=wallace_on_majority>{{cite web|last= Wallace|first= Daniel|title= The Majority Text and the Original Text: Are They Identical?|url= https://bible.org/article/majority-text-and-original-text-are-they-identical|accessdate= 23 November 2013|deadurl= no|archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20131203000201/https://bible.org/article/majority-text-and-original-text-are-they-identical|archivedate= 3 December 2013|df= }}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last= Westcott and Hort|title= The New Testament in The Original Greek: Introduction Appendix|url= https://books.google.com/?id=7ZxUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA2&dq=The+New+Testament+in+the+Original+Greek#v=onepage&q&f=false|accessdate= 23 November 2013|year= 1896}}</ref> Jadi selama lebih dari 250 tahun dilakukan kritis teks mendalam, para sarjana Perjanjian Baru dapat menyatakan tidak ada varian tekstual yang mempengaruhi doktrin apapun. Profesor [[D. A. Carson]] menyatakan: "tidak ada dari apa yang kita percayai secara doktrinal benar, dan tidak ada dari apa yang diperintahkan kepada kita untuk dilakukan, yang diubah oleh varian-varian itu. Ini benar untuk tradisi tekstual manapun. Penafsiran perikop-perikop individual dapat saja dipertanyakan; tetapi tidak pernah ada doktrin yang terdampak."<ref name=wallace_on_majority/><ref>

In the 19th century important scholarship was done by [[David Strauss]], [[Ernest Renan]], [[Johannes Weiss]], [[Albert Schweitzer]] and others, all of whom investigated the "[[historical Jesus]]" within the Gospel narratives. In a different field the work of [[H. J. Holtzmann]] was significant: he established a chronology for the composition of the various books of the New Testament which formed the basis for future research on this subject, and established the [[two-source hypothesis]] (the hypothesis that the gospels of [[gospel according to Matthew|Matthew]] and [[gospel according to Luke|Luke]] drew on the [[gospel of Mark]] and a hypothetical document known as [[Q document|Q]]). By the first half of the 20th century a new generation of scholars including [[Karl Barth]] and [[Rudolf Bultmann]], in Germany, [[Roy Harrisville]] and others in North America had decided that the quest for the Jesus of history had reached a dead end. Barth and Bultmann accepted that little could be said with certainty about the historical Jesus, and concentrated instead on the [[kerygma]], or message, of the [[New Testament]]. The questions they addressed were: What was Jesus’s key message? How was that message related to Judaism? Does that message speak to our reality today?
 
Penemuan [[Dead Sea Scrolls]] in 1948 revitalised interest in the possible contribution archaeology could make to the understanding of the New Testament. [[Joachim Jeremias]] and [[C. H. Dodd]] produced linguistic studies which tentatively identified layers within the Gospels that could be ascribed to Jesus, to the authors, and to the early Church; [[Burton Mack]] and [[John Dominic Crossan]] assessed Jesus in the cultural milieu of first-century [[Judea]]; and the scholars of the [[Jesus Seminar]] assessed the individual [[trope (literature)|tropes]] of the Gospels to arrive at a consensus on what could and could not be accepted as historical. Kritikus Perjanjian Baru kontemporer cenderung mengikuti tren yang sudah mengalir pada paruh kedua abad ke-20 di mana penelitian mengenai "Yesus sebagai tokoh sejarah", sekarang mengarah kepada "Keyahudian Yesus" ([[:en:Bruce Chilton|Bruce Chilton]], [[Geza Vermes]] dan lain-lain) serta pembentukan dari keadaan politik dan agama di Palestina pada abad ke-1 ([[Marcus Borg]]).

Jumlah saksi naskah yang sangat banyak menimbulkan kesulitan yang unik, terutama tidak memungkinkan membuat "''stemmatics''" dalam banyak kasus, karena sejumlah penulis menggunakan dua atau lebih versi naskah yang berbeda sebagai sumbernya. Akibatnya, kritik teks Perjanjian Baru mengadopsi [[:en:eclecticism|eklektisisme]] setelah mengurutkan saksi-saksi naskah itu dalam tiga grup besar, yang disebut "jenis teks" ("''text-types''"). {{As of | 2017}} pembagian jenis teks adalah:

== Metode dan perspektif ==
[[Berkas:Two Source Hypothesis.svg|jmpl|ka|200px|[[:en:Source criticism|Kritisisme sumber (''source criticism'')]]: diagram [[:en:two-source hypothesis|hipotesis dua sumber]], salah satu penjelasan hubungan Injil Matius ("Matthew", Markus ("Mark") dan Lukas ("Luke")]]
Metode dan perspektif kritis jumlahnya banyak, dan tinjauan berikut tidak dapat dianggap komprehensif.
 
=== Kritisisme tekstual ===
[[Kritik teks|Kritisisme tekstual]] ("Kritik teks", ''Textual criticism''; kadang-kadang dirujuk sebagai "''lower criticism''"; "kritisisme tingkat rendah") merujuk kepada penelitian teks itu sendiri untuk mengidentifikasi asal usul atau melacak sejarahnya.<!-- It takes as its basis the fact that errors inevitably crept into texts as generations of scribes reproduced each other's manuscripts. For example, [[Josephus]] employed scribes to copy his [[Antiquities of the Jews]]. As the scribes copied the Antiquities, they made mistakes. The copies of these copies also had the mistakes. The errors tend to form "families" of manuscripts: scribe ''A'' will introduce mistakes which are not in the manuscript of scribe ''B'', and over time the "families" of texts descended from ''A'' and ''B'' will diverge further and further as more mistakes are introduced by later scribes, but will always be identifiable as descended from one or the other. Textual criticism studies the differences between these families to piece together a good idea of what the original looked like. The more surviving copies, the more accurately can they deduce information about the original text and about "family histories".
 
Textual criticism uses a number of specialized methodologies, including [[eclecticism]], [[stemmatics]], copy-text editing and [[cladistics]]. A number of principles have also been introduced for use in deciding between variant manuscripts, such as ''[[Lectio difficilior potior]]'': "The harder of two readings is to be preferred".<ref>Johann Jakob Griesbach (1745–1812) published several editions of the New Testament. In his 1796 edition, he established fifteen critical rules, including a variant of Bengel's rule, ''Lectio difficilior potior'', "the hardest reading is best." Another was ''[[Lectio brevior|Lectio brevior praeferenda]]'', "the shorter reading is best," based on the idea that scribes were more likely to add than to delete. {{cite web | url=http://www.bible-researcher.com/rules.html#Griesbach |title=Critical Rules of Johann Albrecht Bengel|publisher=Bible-researcher.com|accessdate=2010-03-16| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100213010108/http://www.bible-researcher.com/rules.html| archivedate= 13 February 2010 | deadurl= no}}</ref> Nevertheless, there remains a strong element of subjectivity, areas where the scholar must decide his reading on the basis of taste or common-sense: Amos 6.12, for example, reads: "Does one plough with oxen?" The obvious answer is "yes", but the context of the passage seems to demand a "no"; the usual reading therefore is to amend this to, "Does one plough ''the sea'' with oxen?" The amendment has a basis in the text, which is believed to be corrupted, but is nevertheless a matter of judgement.<ref>[[David J. A. Clines]], "[http://www.shef.ac.uk/bibs/DJACcurrres/Postmodern1/Methods.html Methods in Old Testament Study]", section ''Textual Criticism'', in ''On the Way to the Postmodern: Old Testament Essays 1967–1998, Volume 1'' (JSOTSup, 292; Sheffield: [[Sheffield Academic Press]], 1998), pp. 23–45.</ref>
-->
=== Kritisisme sumber ===
[[:en:Source criticism (biblical studies)|Kritik sumber (''Source criticism'')]] adalah upaya pencarian sumber-sumber asli yang mendasari suatu teks, dalam hal ini [[Alkitab]].<!-- Metode ini dapat ditelusuri kepada pendeta Prancis abad ke-17, [[:en:Richard Simon (priest)|Richard Simon]], dan d its most influential product is [[Julius Wellhausen]]'s ''[[Prolegomena zur Geschichte Israels]]'' (1878), whose "insight and clarity of expression have left their mark indelibly on modern biblical studies".<ref>[[Antony F. Campbell]], SJ, "[http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/content/BPL_Images/Content_store/Sample_chapter/9780631210719/perdue.pdf Preparatory Issues in Approaching Biblical Texts]," in ''The Hebrew Bible in Modern Study'', p.6. Campbell renames source criticism as "origin criticism".</ref> An example of source criticism is the study of the [[Synoptic problem]]. Critics noticed that the three [[Synoptic Gospels]], [[Gospel of Matthew|Matthew]], [[Gospel of Mark|Mark]] and [[Gospel of Luke|Luke]], were very similar, indeed, at times identical. The dominant theory to account for the duplication is called the [[two-source hypothesis]]. This suggests that Mark was the first gospel to be written, and that it was probably based on a combination of early oral and written material. Matthew and Luke were written at a later time, and relied primarily on two different sources: Mark and a written collection of Jesus's sayings, which has been given the name [[Q document|Q]] by scholars. This latter document has now been lost, but at least some of its material can be deduced indirectly, namely through the material that is common in Matthew and Luke but absent in Mark. In addition to Mark and Q, the writers of Matthew and Luke made some use of additional sources, which would account for the material that is unique to each of them.
-->
=== Kritisisme bentuk dan sejarah tradisi ===
[[:en:Form criticism|Kritisisme bentuk (''Form criticism'')]] membagi Alkitab dalam bagian-bagian kecil ("perikop", ''pericope'', cerita-cerita) yang dianalisis dan dikategorikan berdasarkan [[genre]] (prosa atau sajak, surat-surat, hukum-hukum, arsip pengadilan, nyanyian peperangan, puisi ratapan, dll.).<!-- The form critic then theorizes on the pericope's ''[[Sitz im Leben]]'' ("setting in life"), the setting in which it was composed and, especially, used.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://bibledudes.com/biblical-studies/form.php|title=This site is temporarily unavailable|publisher=|accessdate=29 January 2016}}</ref> [[Tradition history]] is a specific aspect of form criticism which aims at tracing the way in which the pericopes entered the larger units of the biblical canon, and especially the way in which they made the transition from oral to written form. The belief in the priority, stability, and even detectability, of oral traditions is now recognised to be so deeply questionable as to render tradition history largely useless, but form criticism itself continues to develop as a viable methodology in biblical studies.<ref>[https://wayback.archive-it.org/all/20080407061814/http://www.bookreviews.org/pdf/3815_3767.pdf Yair Hoffman, review of Marvin A.

=== Kritisisme redaksi ===
[[:en:Redaction criticism|Kritisisme redaksi]] mempelajari "pengkoleksian, pengaturan, penyuntingan, dan modifikasi sumber-sumber", dan sering digunakan untuk merekonstruksi komunitas dan tujuan para penulis teks.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www-relg-studies.scu.edu/facstaff/murphy/courses/exegesis/redaction.htm |title=Religious Studies Department, Santa Clara University. |access-date=2018-05-23 |archive-date=2006-02-28 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060228065539/http://www-relg-studies.scu.edu/facstaff/murphy/courses/exegesis/redaction.htm |dead-url=yes }}</ref> Didasarkan pada perbandingan perbedaan antara naskah-naskah dan nilai penting teologisnya.<ref>[http://www.abu.nb.ca/courses/NewTestament/Gospels/REDACCR.htm Redaction Criticism] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080105121203/http://www.abu.nb.ca/courses/NewTestament/Gospels/REDACCR.htm |date=2008-01-05 }}.</ref>
 
=== Kritisisme kanonik ===
[[:en:canonical criticism|Kritisisme kanonik]] adalah "suatu penelitian bentuk akhir teks sebagai suatu totalitas, serta proses yang mengarahkannya".<ref>[http://theologytoday.ptsem.edu/oct1985/v42-3-article3.htm Norman K. Gottwald, "Social Matrix and Canonical Shape", ''Theology Today'', October 1985.] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100531012200/http://theologytoday.ptsem.edu/oct1985/v42-3-article3.htm |date=2010-05-31 }}. Kutipan: "an examination of the final form of the text as a totality, as well as the process leading to it"</ref> Metode ini terutama dikaitkan dengan [[:en:Brevard S. Childs|Brevard S. Childs]], yang menulis secara prolifik mengenai subjek ini.<!-- Where previous criticism asked questions about the origins, structure and history of the text, canonical criticism addresses questions of meaning, both for the community (and communities—subsequent communities are regarded as being as important as the original community for which it was produced) which used it, and in the context of the wider canon of which it forms a part.<ref name="harpers"/>
 
===Kritisisme retorik===
[[:en:Rhetorical criticism|Kritisisme retorik]] Alkitab bertarikh sejak paling sedikit kepada [[Augustinus dari Hippo|Augustinus]]. Aplikasi modern teknik analisis retorik pada teks Alkitab bermula dari [[James Muilenburg]] pada tahun 1968 sebagai suatu bentuk korektif terhadap kritisisme bentuk, yang dipandang oleh Muilenburg terlalu mengeneralisasi dan kurang cukup spesifik. Bagi Muilenberg, kritisisme retorik menekankan pesan unik dan tidak terulangi dari penulis atau pembicara yang disampaikan kepada para pendengarnya, terutama termasuk teknik dan piranti yang masuk ke dalam proses penyusunan naratif alkitabiah sebagaimana didengar (atau dibaca) oleh hadirin.<!-- "What Muilenburg called rhetorical criticism was not exactly the same as what secular literary critics called rhetorical criticism, and when biblical scholars became interested in "rhetorical criticism", they did not limit themselves to Muilenberg's definition...In some cases it is difficult to distinguish between rhetorical criticism and literary criticism, or other disciplines". Unlike canonical criticism, rhetorical criticism (at least as defined by Muilenberg) takes a special interest in the relationship between the biblical text and its intended audience within the context of the communal life setting. Rhetorical criticism asks how the text ''functions'' for its audience, including especially its original audience: to teach, persuade, guide, exhort, reproach, or inspire, and it concentrates especially on identifying and elucidating unique features of the situation, including both the techniques manifest in the text itself and the relevant features of the cultural setting, through which this purpose is pursued.--><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.angelfire.com/md/mdmorrison/ot/rhetoric.htm|title=Rhetorical Criticism of the Hebrew Bible|publisher=|accessdate=29 January 2016}}</ref><!--

===Kritisisme naratif===
[[:en:Narrative criticism|Kritisisme naratif]] is one of a number of modern forms of criticism based in contemporary literary theory and practice—in this case, from [[narratology]]. In common with other literary approaches (and in contrast to historical forms of criticism), narrative criticism treats the text as a unit, and focuses on narrative structure and composition, plot development, themes and motifs, characters, and characterization.<ref>Johannes C. De Klerk, "[http://www.unisa.ac.za/default.asp?Cmd=ViewContent&ContentID=7379 Situating biblical narrative studies in literary theory and literary approaches]", ''Religion & Theology'' 4/3 (1997).</ref> Narrative criticism is a complex field, but some central concerns include the reliability of the narrator, the question of authorial intent (expressed in terms of the context in which the text was written and its presumed intended audience), and the implications of multiple interpretation—i.e., an awareness that a narrative is capable of more than one interpretation, and thus of the implications of each.<ref>[http://www.acu.edu/sponsored/restoration_quarterly/archives/1990s/vol_38_no_1_contents/heard.html Christopher Heard, "Narrative Criticism and the Hebrew Scriptures: A Review and Assessment", ''[[Restoration Quarterly]]'', Vol. 38/No.1 (1996)] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071130203800/http://www.acu.edu/sponsored/restoration_quarterly/archives/1990s/vol_38_no_1_contents/heard.html |date=2007-11-30 }}</ref>
 
===Psychological criticism===
[[Psychological biblical criticism]] is a perspective rather than a method. It discusses the psychological dimensions of the authors of the text, the material they wish to communicate to their audience, and the reflections and meditations of the reader.
 
===Socio-scientific criticism===
Socio-scientific criticism (also known as socio-historical criticism and social-world criticism) is a contemporary form of multidisciplinary criticism drawing on the social sciences, especially anthropology and sociology. A typical study will draw on studies of contemporary nomadism, [[shamanism]], [[tribalism]], spirit-possession, and [[millenarianism]] to illuminate similar passages described in biblical texts. Socioscientific criticism is thus concerned with the historical world ''behind'' the text rather than the historical world ''in'' the text.<ref>[http://www.sbl-site.org/Publications/Semeia/Semeia87/12Sem87.pdf Frank S. Frick, ''Response: Reconstructing Israel's Ancient World'', SBL] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071005155539/http://www.sbl-site.org/Publications/Semeia/Semeia87/12Sem87.pdf |date=October 5, 2007 }}</ref>
 
===Postmodernist criticism===
[[File:Joshua's Tomb at Kifl Hares.jpg|thumb|The "Tomb of Joshua" at [[Kifl Haris]], a [[Palestinian people|Palestinian]] village located northwest of the [[Israeli settlement]] of [[Ariel (city)|Ariel]] in the [[West Bank]]. Postmodernist criticism frequently locates biblical references in a modern setting.]]
Postmodernist biblical criticism treats the same general topics addressed in broader [[postmodernism|postmodernist]] scholarship, "including author, autobiography, culture criticism, [[deconstruction]], ethics, fantasy, gender, ideology, politics, [[Postcolonial theology#Biblical criticism|postcolonialism]], and so on". It asks questions like: What are we to make, ethically speaking, of the program of [[ethnic cleansing]] described in the [[book of Joshua]]? What does the social construction of gender mean for the depiction of male and female roles in the Bible?<ref>[http://www.bookreviews.org/pdf/1320_3188.pdf David L. Barr, review of [[A.&nbsp;K.&nbsp;M. Adam]] (ed.), ''Handbook of Postmodern Biblical Interpretation'', 2000]</ref>
 
In textual criticism, postmodernist criticism rejects the idea of an original text (the traditional quest of textual criticism, which marginalised all non-original manuscripts), and treats all manuscripts as equally valuable; in the "higher criticism" it brings new perspectives to theology, [[Israelites|Israelite]] history, [[hermeneutics]], and [[ethics]].<ref>David J.&nbsp;A. Clines, "[http://www.shef.ac.uk/bibs/DJACcurrres/Postmodern1/Pyramid.html The Pyramid and the Net]", ''On the Way to the Postmodern: Old Testament Essays 1967–1998'', Volume 1 (JSOTSup, 292; Sheffield: Sheffield Academic Press, 1998).</ref>
 
===Feminist exegesis===
[[Feminist]] criticism of the Bible utilizes the same means and essentially strives for the same ends as [[feminist literary criticism]]. It is therefore made up of a variety of peoples, including, but not limited to, [[Jewish feminism|Jews]], [[Womanist theology|people of color]], and [[Christian feminism|feminist Christians]] such as [[Phyllis Trible]], [[Tikva Frymer-Kensky]], [[Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza|Elisabeth Fiorenza]].<ref>{{cite book|editor1-last=Fiorenza|editor1-first=Elisabeth Schüssler|title=Feminist biblical studies in the 20th century : scholarship and movement|date=2014|publisher=Society of Biblical Literature|isbn=978-1589839229|series=Bible and Women: An Encyclopedia of Exegesis and Cultural History}}</ref>
 
==New Testament authenticity and the historical Jesus==
[[File:Gutenberg Bible.jpg|thumb|The [[Gutenberg Bible]], the first printed Bible]]
 
===Multiple attestation===
The ''[[criterion of multiple attestation]]'' or "independent attestation" is an important tool used by scholars. Simply put, the more independent witnesses that report an event or saying, the better.
 
The gospels are not always independent of each other. There is a possibility that Matthew and Luke copied contents from Mark's gospel.<ref>Catherine M. Murphy, ''The Historical Jesus For Dummies'', For Dummies Pub., 2007. p 14 [http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&tbs=bks%3A1&q=%22Matthew+and+Luke%2C+for+example%2C+probably+had+Mark%27s+gospel+sitting+right+in+front+of+them+when+they+were+writing%22.+&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai= Google Link]</ref> There are, however, at least four early, independent sources. The criterion of multiple attestation focuses on the sayings or deeds of Jesus that are attested to in more than one independent literary source such as the [[Apostle Paul]], [[Josephus]], [[Q source|Q]], and/or the [[Gospel of the Hebrews]]. The force of this criterion is increased if a given motif or theme is also found in different literary forms such as parables, dispute stories, miracle stories, prophecy, and/or [[aphorism]].<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61">Catherine M. Murphy, ''The Historical Jesus For Dummies'', For Dummies Pub., 2007. p 14, 61-77</ref><ref name="John P. Meier 2009">John P. Meier, ''A Marginal Jew'', Yale University Press, 2009.</ref>
 
Multiple attestation has a certain kind of objectivity. Given the independence of the sources, satisfaction of the criterion makes it harder to maintain that it was an invention of the Church.<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61"/><ref name="John P. Meier 2009"/><ref name="Maureen W. Yeung 2002. pp 54-56">Maureen W.

===Tendencies of the developing tradition===
It is important that scholars research the earliest testimonies. To do this, they need to figure out the earliest gospel and the earliest parts of the gospels. Ideally, this material would come from eyewitnesses, but that is not always possible.
 
The writings of the [[Church Fathers]] are helpful in this regard. They wrote that the [[Hebrew Gospel of Matthew|Hebrew Gospel]] was the first written while the [[Gospel of John]] was later. Also, because certain "laws" govern the transmission of tradition during the oral period, we can, by understanding these "laws", determine which tradition is early and which is late.<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61"/><ref name="John P. Meier 2009"/><ref name="Maureen W. Yeung 2002. pp 54-56"/><ref name="blue.butler.edu"/><ref name="ancienthistory.about.com"/><ref name="Bart D. Ehrman 1999. pp 90"/><ref name="John P. Meier 1991. pp 174"/><ref name="Stanley E. Porter 2000"/><ref name="Thiessen, 2002"/><ref>James R. Edwards, ''The Hebrew Gospel & the Development of the Synoptic Tradition'', Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co, 2009. pp 1-118</ref>
 
===Embarrassment===
The ''[[criterion of embarrassment]]'', also known as the ''criterion of dissimilarity'', is an analytical tool that biblical scholars use in assessing whether the [[New Testament]] accounts of [[Jesus]]' actions and words are historically accurate. If an author says something that would be awkward or embarrassing for them, it is likely to be accurate.<ref>Catherine M. Murphy, ''The Historical Jesus For Dummies'', For Dummies Pub., 2007. p 14</ref>
 
The essence of the criterion of embarrassment is that the [[Early Church]] would hardly have gone out of its way to "create" or "falsify" historical material that only embarrassed its author or weakened its position in arguments with opponents. Rather, embarrassing material coming from Jesus would naturally be either suppressed or softened in later stages of the [[Gospel]] tradition, and often such progressive suppression or softening can be traced through the Gospels.
 
The evolution of the depiction of the [[Baptism of Jesus]] exhibits the criterion of embarrassment. In the [[Gospel of the Hebrews]], Jesus is but a man (see [[adoptionism]]) submitting to another man for the forgiveness of the "sin of ignorance" (a lesser sin, but sin nonetheless). Matthew's description of the Baptism adds John's statement to Jesus: "I should be baptized by you", attempting to do away with the embarrassment of John baptising Jesus, implying John's seniority. Similarly, it resolves the embarrassment of Jesus undergoing baptism "for the forgiveness of sin", the purpose of John's baptising in Mark, by omitting this phrase from John's proclamations. The [[Gospel of Luke]] says only that Jesus was baptized, without explicitly asserting that John performed the baptism. The [[Gospel of John]] goes further and simply omits the whole story of the Baptism. This might show a progression of the Evangelists attempting to explain, and then suppress, a story that was seen as embarrassing to the [[Early Christianity|early church]].<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61"/><ref name="John P. Meier 2009"/><ref name="Maureen W. Yeung 2002. pp 54-56"/><ref name="blue.butler.edu"/><ref name="ancienthistory.about.com"/><ref name="Bart D. Ehrman 1999. pp 90"/><ref name="John P. Meier 1991. pp 174"/><ref name="Stanley E. Porter 2000"/><ref name="Thiessen, 2002"/>
 
===Coherence===
The ''criterion of coherence'' (also called consistency or conformity) can be used only when other material has been identified as authentic. This criterion holds that a saying and action attributed to Jesus may be accepted as authentic if it coheres with other sayings and actions already established as authentic. While this criterion cannot be used alone, it can broaden the database for what Jesus actually said and did.<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61"/><ref name="John P. Meier 2009"/><ref name="Maureen W. Yeung 2002. pp 54-56"/><ref name="blue.butler.edu"/><ref name="ancienthistory.about.com"/><ref name="Bart D. Ehrman 1999. pp 90"/><ref name="John P. Meier 1991. pp 174"/><ref name="Stanley E. Porter 2000"/><ref name="Thiessen, 2002"/>
 
===The Crucifixion===
The ''criterion of the Crucifixion'' emphasizes that Jesus met a violent death at the hands of Jewish and Roman officials and that the authentic words and actions of Jesus would alienate people, especially powerful people.<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61"/><ref name="John P. Meier 2009"/><ref name="Maureen W. Yeung 2002. pp 54-56"/><ref name="blue.butler.edu"/><ref name="ancienthistory.about.com"/><ref name="Bart D. Ehrman 1999. pp 90"/><ref name="John P. Meier 1991. pp 174"/><ref name="Stanley E. Porter 2000"/><ref name="Thiessen, 2002"/>
 
===Semitisms===
[[Aramaic of Jesus|Since Jesus spoke in Aramaic]], traces of [[Aramaic]] in the Gospels argue in favor of a primitive tradition that may go back to Jesus. Semitisms are structured according to general rules that allow Hebrew speakers and hearers to say and hear things according to predictable patterns. Hebrew and Aramaic are linguistically very closely related and they follow similar elementary rules. For example, the pun in Matt 23:24, "straining out the gnat (''galma'') and swallowing a camel (''gamla'')" points in the direction of the historical Jesus.<ref name="Maureen W. Yeung 2002. pp 54-56"/><ref>James R. Edwards, ''The Hebrew Gospel & the Development of the Synoptic Tradition'', Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co, 2009. pp 127-128</ref>
 
===''Sitz im Leben''===
{{Main article|Sitz im Leben}}
The sayings and actions of the historical Jesus must reflect the ''Sitz im Leben'' or the concrete social, political, economic, agricultural, and religious conditions of ancient Palestine, while sayings and actions of Jesus that reflect social, political, economic, agricultural, or religious conditions that existed only outside Palestine or only after the death of Jesus are to be considered inauthentic.<ref name="Catherine M. Murphy 2007. p 14, 61"/><ref name="John P. Meier 2009"/><ref name="blue.butler.edu"/><ref name="ancienthistory.about.com"/><ref name="Bart D. Ehrman 1999. pp 90"/><ref name="John P.
