The Origins of Early Christian Literature: Contextualizing the New Testament within Greco-Roman Literary Culture is a history monograph written by Robyn Faith Walsh which was published by Cambridge University Press in 2021. The text covers the contexts of Early Christian literature and proposes alternative theses for the origins of the gospels–primarily the Synoptic Gospels–premised on their authorship by an elite in contrast to the oral gospel traditions thesis.
