The Story of Jesus & His Bride

By David Ward Astin

This book hopes to be a tool for its readers to learn more about what Jesus did while he walked through Israel and the Middle East. By telling Jesus' story in chronological order as a single narrative, one can see how he learned, how he taught, how he lived, how he died, how he was resurrected, and how he chose and paid for his bride. It then shows us how his contracted bride lived while waiting for her groom to return. This tool allows us to observe Jesus' example and his bride's behavior with greater clarity than previously, leaving us with the opportunity to follow his example more closely than previously.

By incorporating years of study of the scriptures, this tool reconciles many things that are perceived as contradictions in the four trusted accounts of Jesus' life that have been preserved for us. If you have ever asked; When did Jesus really go up the mountain and see Moses and Elijah? Was the last supper a Passover? Was Jesus really in the tomb for three days and three nights? Why was Peter's response to Jesus' miracle of the awesome catch of fish to swim directly to him as if the boat was too slow, only to tell him, "Leave me, Lord; I am a sinful man"? If you have ever wondered about these questions or similar ones, this book was created for you.

Many methods have been developed to learn about Jesus, but most seem to lack a foundation in the beginning (Genesis). Having an understanding of the beginning provides a broader context of who Jesus is and what he accomplished. We have been asked to believe in Jesus as Messiah, and he is primarily revealed in the accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, so saying "Just start reading your Bible in Genesis and eventually you'll get to Jesus and what he did" seems quite the scenic route.

This book has compiled the four books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John into a single account of the life of Jesus and has placed them in chronological order. By compiling the four gospels, this book significantly reduces the amount of reading necessary to view the entire life of Jesus, and reads more like a storybook than traditional accounts of Jesus' life. There is also a built-in reading plan that enables you to study both the Freshened Covenant and Torah in 52 sections, making it great to use as one-year Bible study method.
