An Introduction to the New Testament by Raymond E Brown
A primer to the New Testament for those new to the material or those seeking deeper insights, from a master biblical scholar
“No book can do everything, not even in 850 pages, and no author can encompass the whole wealth of contemporary thoughtFather Brown’s forthright declaration of his convictions in the foreword and his resolute defense of them in his exegesis rest on a robust confidence in reason and a moderate and balanced traditionalism. This judicious and reassuring approach may comfort many.”—Anthony J. Saldarini, New York Times Book Review
“During his career, Brown has enlightened and challenged scholars. Here he brings his extensive knowledge to bear in a volume primarily for beginners, though it will serve equally well those who are not.”—Library Journal
“This volume is, as always with Brown, beautifully written, and magisterial in its scholarship. . . . It is a fitting climax to his life’s work.”—Nicholas King SJ, The Tablet
