Discovering the Gospels : four accounts of the good news

""Why does Jesus call himself the 'Son of Man' when the entire point of the Gospels is that He is the 'Son of God?'"" ""Why does Jesus tell people to be quiet about the fact that he has healed them?"" ""Why does Mark say that Jesus' family thought he was crazy?"" "This is just a sampling of the many questions asking the "why" of the gospels collected over the years by a teacher with nearly two decades of experience." "Discovering the Gospels: Four Accounts of the Good News answers many of our questions about the gospels. Author Margaret Nutting Ralph introduces us to the methodology and insights of biblical scholarship while involving us in thoughtful dialogue. Because it is written clearly in easily understood terms, this book is an invaluable aid for anyone asking mature questions about the gospels. It is especially suited for schools and Bible study programs."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved… (more)
