Abstract

In The Formation of Q, Kloppenborg identifies three redactional layers in the Sayings Gospel Q: the “formative stratum” (or Q1), the “main redaction” (or Q2), and the “final recension” (or Q3). He ascribes the Beelzebul story in Q 11:14–15, 17–20 entirely to the main redaction. It will presently be argued that the kingdom saying in Q 11:17b appeared in the formative stratum before it was incorporated into the Beelzebul story as part of the main redaction.
