The Five Gospels

What Did Jesus Really Say? The Search For The Authentic Words Of Jesus

BY ROBERT FUNK, ROY HOOVER, THE JESUS SEMINAR
An extremely useful Bible study resource for the individual or meeting. Using the texts of the four gospels plus the Gospel of Thomas, the Jesus Seminar "color code" the words of Jesus. Those in red they attribute to be most reliably spoken by Him. They grade the words in five shades from red to black. Black represents those words that they think others ascribe to Jesus. Very full commentaries on each quotation give context, comparisons with the other Gospels and scholarship on issues raised.
