Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Portraiture of Jesus in the Gospels The four books with which the New Testament opens constitute the only authoritative portrayal of Jesus the Christ. They provide the only portraiture of him accurate in features and correct in colours, unblurred by ignorance or prejudice. We speak of them as one because we cannot see them well, or any one of them, until we recognize them as the four parts, aptly fitted, of one whole. Reading them through attentively and in the order in which they appear in the Scriptures, we become conscious of four distinctly different impressions of one person. As we advance from Matthew to Mark and from Mark to Luke, we realize that we are in the company of the same man moving amid the same people and scenes, and yet, as we more closely fix our attention on the details of each account, he almost seems to be conducting us through another country, amid other scenes, associating with other people and often presenting a different, though not contradictory, view of the same event or principle, and of himself in relation to it. Any one who scrutinizes these writings cannot easily avoid the impression that God intended to show us our Lord from four distinctive points of view.
