“…According to Gundry, the Markan "mention of Simon as leader of an otherwise anonymous search party, whom Jesus then invites to accompany him on a wider mission, puts Simon in a good light." 28 The search party is perhaps not so anonymous. I quote from Gundry's classic commentary on Mark: Simon and the ones with him are "apparently, Andrew, James, and John" (Mark 1:16-20; 1:29), and it is they whom Jesus now invites to go elsewhere.…”

“…According to Gundry, "Peter honors Jesus by addressing him with 'Rabbi' and noting the fulfillment of Jesus' curse," while "Matthew denies Peter the distinctions of remembering Jesus' curse and noting its fulfillment." 50 The first half of Gundry's argument is weakened when one recalls that "in [Matthew] 'rabbi' is never used by any disciple save Judas" (Matthew 26:25, 49). 51 It probably speaks in Peter's favor that Matthew does not have him use this title.…”

In 2023, Alan Garrow published ‘Gnats, Camels, and Matthew’s Use of Luke’ (JSNT 45/3). There, he responds to several authors who engaged critically with various aspects of the Matthean Posteriority Hypothesis in synoptic studies (Matthew uses Mark and Luke; no Q). A section of Garrow’s article contains an extensive response to my Expository Times article (133/6). In his rejoinder, Garrow makes use of several arguments from Robert H. Gundry’s “Peter: False Disciple and Apostate according to Saint Matthew” (2015), which was featured as the Book of the Month in the Expository Times (127/9). In this article, I respond to Garrow and, subsidiarily, to Gundry.
