Digital Verbum Edition
In the mid-100s, Tatian the Syrian assembled the Diatessaron—the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John arranged in a single narrative. In 1933, Reformed theologian Loraine Boettner created his own diatessaron—a gospel harmony that can be used with benefit as a Bible study aid. The Gospel of Jesus is one continuous, highly readable gospel account that is, so far as is possible, placed in chronological order with locations and dates. With marginal references and clear indications of all editorial changes, this new giftable edition features the modern Christian Standard Bible translation and includes maps.
Loraine Boettner’s integration of the fourfold canonical Good News helps new generations of Christians to encounter the testimony of ‘the original eyewitnesses and servants of the word,’ deepening our certainty in what we have been instructed (Luke 1:2). The use of the Christian Standard Bible, which happily combines accuracy with readability, makes this new edition of Boettner’s harmony both edifying and pleasurable to read.

Loraine Boettner was truly a phenomenal theologian, and I cannot suppress my excitement at the opportunity to recommend his work The Gospel of Jesus. Enjoy this volume and then share it with someone!
