How well do you know the Gospels? Who was the man who ran naked from the garden of Gethsemane? What did Peter and Jesus talk about when Jesus appeared to him after the resurrection? For Jack Mahoney, the Gospels are a patchwork quilt presenting the 'nuclear truth' of Jesus' resurrection. In Glimpses of the Gospel he makes accessible to the reader the patchwork unity of the Gospel story; tracing major themes, parables and moments across the Gospels, analysing what changes from gospel to gospel, and showing how the differences between gospel accounts can shed valuable light on the enduring questions of Christians.
