Graffy uses the contributions of gospel scholarship to illuminate the gospels with fascinating new insights. He shows how the faith of the early Christian communities developed on the basis of the historical record of Jesus, and illustrates how the gospels continue to speak powerfully to people of our time. Ideal as an introductory text for the study of the gospels, as a stimulating aid to the preparation of homilies and scripture group sessions, and as a companion for reflective reading of the gospels. ""In patient and clear fashion, Graffy moves through the basic content of the Gospels... tracing the gospel narratives and commenting on the historical roots of the material and the manner in which the evangelists proclaim their own theological perspectives. This would be a good work to recommend to readers just coming to grips with the nature of the Gospels.""--The Bible Today. ""Clear, yet succinct... It is remarkable how much he manages to fit in without making the book in any way difficult to read... Graffy is fully abreast of modern scholarship.""--Methodist Recorder.
