Description

In this complementary book to Old Testament Studies, Frieling begins by looking at the nature of the gospels, and the accounts of healings contained in them. With close attention to the details of the New Testament texts he illuminates the events of Christ's life, and shows how the gospels can be directly related to the events and problems of everyday life.

He concludes with a consideration of agape, the divine love in the Gospel of St John.
