And Jesus Said... (New Living Translation)

Who is Jesus? Over the centuries he's been called everything from a wise teacher to a heretic to the Savior of the world. In "And Jesus Said..." are assembled the words of Jesus from the four books of the Bible that tell the story of his life: the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Organized by topic, this book allows you to investigate what Jesus said about himself and other topics. Short notes after each verse explain the culture, history, and background behind the saying. Each verse in "And Jesus Said..." is written in the New Living Translation. Based on the most recent scholarship and theory in translation, the New Living Translation is easy to read and understand while accurately communicating the meaning of the original text.
