Tom Wright’s guides to Matthew, Mark and Luke.
- This remarkable new series includes Tom Wright’s own fresh translation
of these gospels and provides invaluable background detail and a wealth
of information to help us understand each passage in a richer way.
- Each short passage is followed by a highly readable discussion, with
background information, useful explanation and suggestion, and thoughts
as to how it can be relevant to our lives today.
- In his eye-opening comments on the gospels and what they mean for us
he captures the immediacy of the gospels with a true scholar’s understanding,
yet in an approachable and anecdotal style.
- The guides assume no detailed knowledge of the New Testament and its
background, and are therefore suitable for beginners as well as more experienced
students of the bible.
