What People Are Saying

This remarkable book is both a comprehensive theology of the First Gospel, as well as a handbook for preaching and teaching it through the Church year. Let homilists rejoice! Everyone responsible for proclaiming the Gospel will want this volume!
John Bergsma
Co-Author of A Catholic Introduction to the Old Testament
This is the rare commentary that is as pastorally useful as it is exegetically thorough. It is complete but never cumbersome, clear but never facile. The author sees the mystagogical dimension missed by most modern scholars, though beloved by the Church Fathers. It is the ideal handbook for homilists. Both preachers and scholars alike will love this book and want to keep it handy. For that matter, it will be treasured by all Bible students and teachers!
