The outstanding apologist of the Christian Faith, Justin Martyr, is a unique witness to the transmission of Biblical tradition in the mid-second century. In his time, the canon of Christian writings today known as the New Testament emerged as a counterpart to 'Scripture' (the Law and Prophets of the Hebrew Bible). The chapter in the collective monograph Process of authority deals with the reception of the Hebrew Bible, as reflected in Justin's work, in particular in his Dialogue with Trypho the Jew. Justin uses many quotations from Scripture, which are interpreted as prophecies fulfilled in Christ. As a correlate to the individual verses of the Scripture and source of information on Jesus'life and suffering, he refers in this work 13 times to the 'Memoirs of the apostles'. What, then, is their content and status?
