Helpful reference book November 10, 2007 A real help when you are trying to compare all the parallel passages in the four gospels. You don't have to waste time flipping back and forth.
Absolutely essential June 3, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was looking for a harmony of the gospel accounts and this was recommended to me. What an AMAZING effort Daniel has put forth. I call it the "golden thread" but its more of a bold-font that connects and weaves the verses together. This interweaving is done very insightfully and is most noticeable when all 4 accounts tell the same story, but use different or enhanced definitions as in, for example, the transfiguration. Very respectable work. This has helped me and some of my friends SO much. A MUST HAVE TO ANY WHO ONLY COLLECT QUALITY CHRISTIAN LITERATURE!!!!

Even a student of the Gospels already quite familiar with the details of the life of Christ, will find that the parallel format in chronological order provides a new clarity and richness to the flow of the life and ministry of Christ. While any Gospel harmony is an essential bible study tool, this version has the added benefit of a single bold print path that helps the student tread more easily through the four narratives.

Think you know the Gospels? You don't know the Gospels at all until you read this book over and over and over.
Each event of all the four Gospels is printed side-by-side in columns with the continuity of the narratives printed in bold type so that the whole story comes alive, giving the complete narrative from beginning to end as it unfolds.
I have owned this book for over 12 years and I'm still rereading it all the time. It never gets old. It's great for devotionals, for study or for leisure reading.
Great tool for a study of the Gospels! December 29, 2002 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful tool when studying the Gospel's account of the life of Christ. The author (or should I say editor/compiler?) arranges the texts in harmony, but also includes approximate dates of when the events took place. Some are critical of this approach, wondering how Mr. Daniel came up with the method of dating the events. Mr. Daniel asserts that the method is by no means difinitive. However, by following the feasts and seasons mentioned in the Gospel texts, he does leave us with useful benchmarks as to when these events took place. There are also useful comments about events like the cleansing of the temple. Were there two such events or only one? Mr. Daniel begs the question, then gives his view in the footnotes. This is a great book to use in a long Bible study on the life of Christ - with the emphasis on long. Our care group is currently working our way through the book . . . it's taken us a year and a half, and we're just now half way through! Take your time . . . learn all you can about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
