The Theology of the Gospels

by James Moffatt

Publisher:

Charles Scribner’s Sons

, 1913

Overview

In this volume—written after a series of lectures Moffatt gave at the University of Glasgow—Moffatt takes theology in a “stricter rather than wider” study. Moffatt analyzes what is explicitly stated within the gospels, developing an almost literal theology as pronounced by the writers of the gospels. Not to be taken as a handbook on the gospels, nor a study on the teaching of Jesus, The Theology of the Gospels is a grouping of independent studies on core gospel themes.
