I've been enjoying Mark Goodacre's series The Dating Game about determining dates for the writing of the New Testament. One of the main aims of this series was for Mark to prep. his paper for this year's SBL conference "Dating the Crucial Sources for Early Christianity". Having drawn the series to a close he has now posted the full paper online. There are a few places I'd like to see Mark go into more detail, not least the other reasons for dating Thomas as later than the synoptic gospels, but it's a great introduction to a subject I've always found rather interesting.
