About This Book

The author offers a series of pastoral, verse-by-verse expositions on the latter half of the first Gospel, moving from accounts of healing and teaching through parables, missionary instructions, and disputes with religious authorities, to the foretelling of suffering, the transfiguration, and the passion narrative. Each section draws moral and practical lessons, emphasizes Christ's compassion and judgment of human blindness, and recommends responses for discipleship and ministry, blending close textual analysis with homiletic application for personal and communal spiritual life.
