 Todd's Thoughts
Don’t know who Albright is? Briefly: Albright is generally recognized as the “father of biblical archaeology.” After running the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR) program in Palestine for 10 years (1920-29), he became a professor at Johns Hopkins University, training many of the leading scholars of the next generation (who are just now retiring).
Albright thought he was going to spend about six months or so in Palestine, but ended up staying seven years (before furlough).
Albright’s son Paul said to him, “Dad, you ought to live in Jerusalem all the time.

 Dating the New Testament
Albright wrote, “We can already say emphatically that there is no longer any solid basis for dating any book of the New Testament after about A.D. 80, two full generations before the date between 130 and 150 given by the more radical New Testament critics of today” (Recent Discoveries in Bible Lands, 136).
Elsewhere Albright said, “In my opinion, every book of the New Testament was written by a baptized Jew between the forties and the eighties of the first century (very probably sometime between about A.D. 50 and 75)” (“Toward a More Conservative View,” 3).

The fragments were the oldest Hebrew fragments known at that time which contained a portion of the biblical text, specifically, the Decalogue and the Shema.
Though dated by Cook to the second century C.E., subsequent reappraisals by Albright and others have pushed the date back to the second century B.C.E. The text of the Decalogue present in the papyrus is sometimes closer to the Masoretic version of Exodus, sometimes closer to Deuteronomy.

COMMENTS FROM RALPH P. Another useful volume is The Setting of the Sermon on the Mount, by W. Davies, which needs to be complemented now by Robert A. Guelich’s excellent recent study The Sermon on the Mount, on Matthew 5—7.
COMMENTS FROM RALPH P. Another large effort is by William Hendriksen, who began well with a commentary on- the book of Revelation (titled More than Conquerors) but unhappily seems to have been diverted in his works on Matthew, Mark, and some of the Pauline epistles (notably on Philippians and Colossians).
None of the succeeding books—the series is not complete—has much value, I fear, and parts of the treatment, such as the resort to charts and diagrams, border on the grotesque.
