Brian Gregg's study establishes the authenticity of ten of the twelve finaljudgment sayings in Q, thereby demonstrating that the final judgment was an important component of the message of the historical Jesus. He proceeds to identify the characteristics of the final judgment as propounded by thehistorical Jesus, comparing them to the characteristics of the final judgmenttexts of the late Second Temple period. The study not only contributes to ourunderstanding of the historical Jesus, but it also demands that the potentialhistoricity of all of Q's source material be taken seriously, including thoseelements often assigned to a secondary redactional layer.
