Canon Alfred Weber provides the opportunity to read all the four Gospels in one unbroken narrative in the publication of this book. “His Holiness Pope Pius X desires me to send you His thanks … for having raised an outstanding monument of sacred literature on the foundation of the Holy Gospels.” (Letter of Cardinal Merry del Val to Canon Weber.) Using the words of the Evangelists themselves and relying on the harmonization of the best Scriptural scholars, Weber weaves the four Gospel texts into one seamless account, allowing us to accompany Our Lord Jesus Christ at every step of His earthly life, from the Incarnation right through to the Ascension. This book has the following features: Douay-Rheims text, Detailed introduction on the importance of the Gospels in the mind of the Church, Reader’s layout (no columns or verse numbers), Comprehensive notes giving important doctrinal, historical and geographical explanations, Special sections on Our Lord’s journeys during His Public Life, the layout of the Temple, the city of Jerusalem, Appendix on the foretold destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D., Maps of Palestine and Galilee, model of the Temple of Herod and plan of the city of Jerusalem, Synoptic table of the main events of Our Lord’s life and the places and times they occurred, Table referencing Gospel excerpts for every Sunday and major feast days, Beautiful illustrations by Gustave.
