Goulder (London: SPCK, 1978), and Liberating the Gospels: Reading the Bible with Jewish Eyes, by John Shelby Spong (San Francisco: Harper, 1996), and from Pentateuch & Haftorahs: Hebrew Text, English Translation & Commentary, Edited by Dr. J. H. Hertz (London: The Soncino Press Ltd., 2nd Edition,1960).
** The readings in bold print are the modern haftorahs assigned to the Torah and which are currently being read in synagogues today. The following readings are an attempt by M.D. Goulder to recreate the ancient lectionary. His recreation has been vigorously attacked and these readings are to be understood as only one author’s attempt to recreate it. There is not enough ancient material to allow scholars to recreate the ancient lectionary with any accuracy. Also, the leaders of the synagogues in ancient times had a wide latitude in choosing the haftorah materials which suited them in their synagogue. Also the haftorah readings varied between Hebrew and Helenized Jewish congregations.
