An essential resource for the analytical study of the gospels, The Complete Gospel Parallels goes beyond the standard parallels. This book gives those who study the gospels in English a one-volume compendium of synopses not only for the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, but also for the Gospels of Thomas and Peter, as well as for a few gospel fragments (the Egerton Gospel, Gospel Oxyrhynchus 1224, as well as the Jewish-Christian Gospels of the Hebrews and the Nazoreans). The Complete Gospel Parallels also includes a synopsis for the reconstructed Q Gospel, which enables the reader both to discern how the text of Q can be derived and how Q was adopted and adapted by Matthew and Luke. The Complete Gospel Parallels features the fresh and vibrant Scholars Version translation, which has been thoroughly revised and fine-tuned to facilitate the precise comparison of parallel passages, using consistent English for the same Greek and different English where the originals vary. The Complete Gospel Parallels lucid translation, its easy-to-use format, and its broad range of gospel materials will enhance and deepen the serious reader s appreciation of early Christian tradition and literature.
Industry Reviews
A Scholars Version translation arranged to allow close comparison of parallel passages while gaining a more complete and thorough understanding of Biblical events, The Complete Gospel Parallels is highly recommended for any student of scripture, be they scholar or the non specialist general reader. --Midwest Book Review
By the descriptive 'complete' the authors mean that this study resource not only includes the parallels among the canonical gospels but extends as well to extra-canonical texts such as the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Peter, Q, and other pertinent fragments. The authors offer a fresh translation of the texts and lay out the parallels in a simple and efficient manner, with sigla indicating primary parallels and, in different accents, more distant potential connections with other texts. The Synoptic Gospels are the main reference points and are presented in their entirety; other texts are included only when they represent a significant parallel to synoptic passages. This will be a very helpful resource for those interested in easy access to the extra-canonical parallels. --The Bible Today
