(December 20, 2017 at 4:00 am)vulcanlogician Wrote: Other books in the NT are considered to be written "in the name of" various apostles. Dishonest practice, but hey, it's religion.

"In the name of" or "according to" are both way of ascribing authority to a text, not necessarily its authorship. It's like when a low feudalistic official says, "You are hereby summoned in the name of His Majesty, the King." The low official is claiming the King's authority for whatever he is about to say.
