The Gospels the Historical Foundation

By Norman Mathers

The Gospels the Historical Foundation
A Research-Driven Examination of Jesus and the New Testament Context
The Gospels stand as the essential historical foundation for understanding the life, message, and work of Jesus of Nazareth. Yet they are often misunderstood, misinterpreted, or read apart from the Jewish, historical, and prophetic contexts that shaped them.
In The Gospels: The Historical Foundation, Norman Mathers provides a thorough, research-driven examination of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John-exploring their structure, purpose, theology, and historical setting.

Written for readers who prefer evidence over sentiment, research over rhetoric, and historical context over modern reinterpretation, this volume presents the Gospels as they were meant to be read: in light of the Old Testament covenants, first-century Judaism, messianic expectation, and the unfolding drama of Israel's response to her Messiah.
