Addressing the New Testament literary foreground, the first chart of New Testament Christ Hymns, Prescripts, and Doxologies identifies and compares five Christ hymns; the second, nineteen prescripts; the third, sixteen doxologies.

• Christ hymns: Colossians 1.15-20, Philippians 2.6-11, First Timothy 3.16b-c, Hebrews 1.1-4, and John 1.1-5, 14 — what each says about Christ’s Cosmic Significance and his Church Significance. See especially the Christ Hymn in Colossians 1.15-20 (BcR also has a related audio)
• Prescripts: Typical elements: author (superscriptio), recipient (adscriptio), and greeting (salutatio). Includes text for each (NASB95), grouped by Paul’s Travel Epistles, Paul’s Prison Epistles, Paul’s Pastoral Epistles, and the General Epistles (Hebrews and First John lack prescripts)
• Doxologies: Each reference and its text, its location in the letter, and where is stands relative to a greeting (if present)
