This volume in the series Documenta Q deals with the reconstruction of the Q text behind Luke 17:26-30 par. Matt 24:37-39 (As in the Days of Noah) and Luke 17:34f par. Matt 24:40f (One Taken, One Left). These two texts form the second half of the apocalyptic discourse in the Sayings Gospel Q. They consist of two prophetic correlatives and a final parallelism with a gender pairing. The time of the final judgment cannot be predicted, but it will affect everyone, with some being saved and others doomed. The rich history of research on the reconstruction of this passage of the Sayings Gospel is exhaustively documented in this volume surveying the whole range of arguments used in reconstructing the text. This book will considerably enhance future research on the Sayings Gospel Q, the historical Jesus, and the eschatology of the earliest followers of Jesus.
