The Life and Ministry of Jesus (Standard Reference Library New Testament, Vol. 1) is unavailable, but you can change that!

The Life and Ministry of Jesus is a collection of lessons on the life and ministry of Christ, taking a chronological look at His miraculous existence by blending the four Gospels into a single story. Douglas Redford compiles the most insightful, most helpful portions of commentary on certain key passages that have been covered on different occasions throughout the history of the Standard Lesson...

John’s prologue is also unique. Nothing in the other Gospels (or elsewhere in Scripture) compares with the description of God’s revelation of himself found in these verses. It begins with an introduction of Jesus as the eternal Word, active in creation, but who then “became flesh and made his dwelling among us” (John 1:14). The prologue is interrupted briefly (in verses 6–8) by a reference to John the Baptist as the man sent from God to announce Jesus’ coming.
