An introduction and survey
By Professor Craig Blomberg.
Apollos. 440 pages. £16.00
ISBN 0 85111 770 8
This remarkable book looks set to become the standard text on the Gospels for Bible and theological colleges, and an invaluable aid to the thoughtful student of Scripture everywhere.
Blomberg's aim (unusual in these days of fragmented knowledge) has been to produce a readable, up-to-date synthesis of the best scholarly work on the life, times and teaching of Jesus. His target audience is his own students at Denver Seminary but the book is pitched at a level that shouldn't tax anyone used to reading non-fiction; even basic concepts are explained.
