New Testament Introduction

An invaluable resource for schools and Bible study

The New Testament exists only because of Jesus of Nazareth. Though He wrote nothing Himself, He brought about the New Testament - a collection of writings that have shaped world history, while affecting the lives of those who read them.

This approachable guide introduces the beginner to the study of the New Testament, recognizing the need to apply the mind and the heart to this task.

One of six titles in the St. Joseph Bible Resources series, this fully-illustrated booklet provides, in a concise and accessible format, an introductory guide that offers the following:

• explanations of what prompted the authors to pen this collection of writings
• at-a-glance outlines of the Gospels, Acts, the Pauline letters, Hebrews, the Catholic letters, and Revelation
• maps that elucidate prominent places in the lives of Jesus, His followers, and Paul
• thought-provoking Scripture passages that conceptualize the themes of the New Testament writings

This booklet is an invaluable resource for use in schools, in Bible study groups, or by the individual inquirer.
