About the author Francis J.
Conceived as a resource for Religious educators, deacons, and other ministers in the Catholic Church, this book will serve Catholics and others as an ideal supplement to a conventional New Testament introduction or as a companion to Reading the New Testament itself.
The remaining chapters give exemplary readings of the figure of Jesus and of the various divisions of the New Testament canon.
The opening chapter and an epilogue directly address the theological requirements of, and historical challenges for, ecclesial reading.
