John Clinton explains the gospels' contents and structure, their transmission, their historicity, their main themes, the synoptic dilemma, and their connection to the fourth gospel with clarity and vigor for beginning students. An Introduction to the Gospels is a textbook for courses on the Gospels that are taught at colleges and in the first year of seminary. The collection covers all four of the canonical Gospels and includes an overview of "the universe of the Gospels," all while reflecting the most recent scholarship and presented in an approachable manner. The book ends with a chapter-length discussion of each of the Synoptic Gospels, which contains information about each gospel's author, audience, date, and location of composition, motivation for the writing, and distinguishing features.
