The classic Robertson/Broadus Harmony of the Gospels, newly revised for students of the New International Version.

An excellent resource for studying the life of Jesus.

This helpful book arranges the four gospels in parallel columns, following the life of Jesus. It is a very helpful resource for anyone desiring to know what Jesus said and did in chronological order. Also, the book provides excellent essays and notes about various interesting and controversial issues involved in studying Jesus' life. It uses the New International Version in the text, making it available to all English readers. I use this book as an important part of the course I teach to ministerial students on the life of Jesus.

An eye opener

I am currently reading through this book, which is really a combination of each of the gospel accounts in chronological order. So far the book has been very enlightening and has taught me more about Christ than I would have learned by reading one gospel at a time. There is something about reading each account side by side that really brings the stories to life, and making Jesus more tangible (at least in my mind). If you want to know more about Jesus, His disciples, and you want to grow closer to the Lord this is a great book to help with all of these things.

The commentary is excellent. For example, did you realize that Jesus began to teach in parables late in His ministry, and only after many people had turned against Him?

One other thing that I really like about this book is that every time an old testament prophecy is fulfilled in the new testament it gives the old testament reference right there in the text. I know that many Bibles note this, but they use superscript marks and it's easy to read over them, so I like the references in the reading, that way I don't miss anything.

Helpful Resource

This resource is proving to be very valuable in my Study of the Bible. I often struggle with pulling out the subtle but significant differences between the synoptic gospels. Flipping back and forth in my Bible leaves me feeling frustrated. After using the "NIV Harmony of the Gospels" in my personal study, rather than feeling frustrated, I am excited and am able to appreciate those subtle differences. I would HIGHLY recommend this resource for any student of God's Word!
