Excerpt from Introduction to the New Testament: The Collection of the Four Gospels and the Gospel of St. Matthew
The first and strictly preliminary chapter of this second volume will not deal with the composition of our gospels. I shall confine myself to inquire how and when the group, hitherto closed and inseparable, of these four writings was formed, Which we shall have thereafter to study separately.
In the first volume of this work I had not to strike out a new path, for studies pursued during a long series of years had led me to convictions very much in accordance with the views generally admitted on the composition, the date, and the chronological order° of the thirteen epistles Of St. Paul which I regard as authentic.

Frederic Louis Godet (1812-1900), one of the most influential Swiss Protestant Reformed scholars of his day was educated at the University of Neuchatel in Switzerland, studied Theology at Bonn and Berlin and was ordained to the ministry in 1836. From 1850 to 1873, he was professor of Biblica Exegesis and Critical Theology at the Theological School of the National Swiss Church of the canton. In 1873, he became one of the founders of the Free Evangelical Church of Neuchatel, professor of New Testament Exegesis in the Free Evangelical Theological School and a firm defender of the Orthodox Christian faith in a growing sea of liberalism. Among Godet's best known writings are Commentary on Luke, Commentary on John, Commentary on Romans, Commentary on First corinthians, Studies in the Old Testament, STudies in the NEw Testament, STudies in Paul's Epistles, and Lectures in Defense of the Christian Faith.
