HARD SAYINGS OF JESUS IN THE GOSPELS

For many people, the teachings of Jesus can be difficult to understand, not only hard to live out, but also challenging to explain when questioned, as their true meaning can sometimes seem difficult to discern. Many questions surrounding the teachings of Jesus arise from misunderstandings of language and historical context. In this book, Fr Emmanuel returns to the roots of these teachings, bringing clarity to the original Greek and Hebrew meanings behind the words and exploring how they have been interpreted throughout history. In doing so, he provides readers with a richer and more accurate understanding of the context in which these sayings were originally spoken, as well as the deeper truths they convey. The reflections shared in each chapter, together with the catechetical insights, help readers engage more deeply with the teachings of Christ and better appreciate their meaning within both Scripture and everyday Christian life. Fr Emmanuel's unique gift for approaching Scripture with both humility and wisdom is a testament to his commitment to Christ and to his ministry. >Rebecca Reville St. Augustine's Parish, Heelands, Milton Keynes, UK
