Jesus and The Gospels

Jesus and The Gospels by Clive Marsh; Steve Moyise was published by Continuum in June 2006 and is our 4949th best seller. The ISBN for Jesus and The Gospels is 9780567040732.

This book offers an ideal introduction to the Gospels and explains why it is that scholars and lay people have such different understandings of the person of Jesus.

The first half of the book looks at the main sources for the life of Jesus, principally the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, but also the so-called apocryphal Gospels.

The second half of the book begins with an examination of the criteria employed by scholars to determine the earliest and most reliable forms of the tradition.

This volume now includes: study questions at the end of each chapter, updated reading lists, and two new chapters bringing the scholarship up to date
