Binding: paperback

Section: Faculty & Alumni

Following on A House for My Name, Peter Leithart dives deep into the fascinating web woven by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Doubling as a scholar and a pastor, Leithart rejects much of modern textual criticism, but gleans from the best of it, especially the work of N. T. Wright, to show how radically political Jesus' message actually was. The book includes a chapter on the themes highlighted in each individual gospel, showing that Jesus is revealed as a Lawgiver, as a king, as a Prophet, and the Son of God.
