I've read this front to back three times, and I enjoy it more each time. This is by a Mormon writer, and so has a Mormon bias, but there are many references to other scholarly and historical works on the life of Christ by non-Mormons. It can certainly be appreciated by any Christian looking to learn more about Christ and his life. I highly recommend this and any of Talmage's other books. ( )

I am so pleased to be finished with this book! I really enjoyed it, but it was dense - lots of information, small print, end notes after every chapter with even smaller print, cross references. I think I've been reading this since February, and that's a really long time for me to be reading the same book.

It's a hard book to talk about, since it is so personal, but I really enjoyed it. Several times, I would have to put the book aside and think about it. My favorite part has been how it takes the 4 gospels and goes chronologically by what happened. It helped me sort of put things into place, when events happened. ( )

Fantastic and all-encompassing. I learned so much that had previously passed under the radar. ( )

This book really gave me a greater appreciation for who Jesus Christ is and how amazing His life and mission are. I especially liked how the scriptures are the foundation of all that is taught in this book - how all the different pictures we get of the Savior in the scriptures are brought together. ( )

I haven't found a better book on an indepth description of Jesus Christ's life and ministry. Beware, this book is written at a very high level and difficult vocabulary at times. ( )
