The full title of his principal work-a work which, though now out of date, entitles its author to be regarded as the founder of modern critical research in the field of early Christian literature-is The Credibility of the Gospel History; or the Principal Facts of the New Testament confirmed by Passages of Ancient Authors, who were contemporary with our Saviour or his Apostles, or lived near their time. Part i. , in 2 vols. 8vo, appeared in 1727; the publication of part ii. , in 12 vols. 8vo, began in 1733 and ended in 1755. In 1730 there wasa second edition of part i. , and the Additions and Alterations were also published separately. A Supplement, otherwise entitled A History of the Apostles and Evangelists, Writers of the New Testament, was added in 3 vols. (1756 - 1757), and reprinted in 1760. Other works by Lardner are A Large Collection of' Ancient Jewish and Heathen Testimonies to the Truth of the Christian Revelation, with Notes and Observations (4 vols. , 4to, 1764 - 1767); The History of the Heretics of the two first Centuries after Christ, published posthumously in 1780 and a considerable number of occasional sermons.
