A Harmony of the Gospels
A classic manual that has gone through more
than twenty printings, this book is the
first Harmony of the Gospels to use
the Revised Standard Version of the
Bible. This simple and nontechnical book
presents the Gospel materials in parallel
columns in order that the Bible reader can
compare the varied texts. It does not
restrict itself simply to the Synoptic
Gospels but includes the Fourth Gospel as
well, thus enabling an overview of the major
New Testament descriptions of the life and
ministry of Jesus.
Dr. Heim presents the story mainly in terms of the action involved, while at the same time disclosing the substance of the teaching passages as adequately as possible. He exposes the major parallels in several accounts without tearing texts from their contexts and without constantly breaking up passages and transposing verses. He deliberately focuses on the large movements of thought and action, avoiding minutiae of all kinds. Although footnotes and cross references are held to a minimum, an index is provided for easy location of individual passages.
