Abstract

This article adds a further, early example of the ‘I have come’ + purpose formula, as used frequently in early Jewish literature by angelic visitors to earth. This case and other instances already known are relevant to the question of whether pre-existence christology is implied in the parallel statements of Jesus in the Synoptic Gospels.
