A Scholars Version translation arranged to allow close comparison
of parallel passages while gaining a more complete and thorough
understanding of Biblical events, The Complete Gospel Parallels is
highly recommended for any student of scripture, be they scholar or
the non specialist general reader. --Midwest Book Review
By the descriptive 'complete' the authors mean that this study
resource not only includes the parallels among the canonical
gospels but extends as well to extra-canonical texts such as the
Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Peter, Q, and other pertinent
fragments. The authors offer a fresh translation of the texts and
lay out the parallels in a simple and efficient manner, with sigla
indicating primary parallels and, in different accents, more
distant potential connections with other texts. The Synoptic
Gospels are the main reference points and are presented in their
entirety; other texts are included only when they represent a
significant parallel to synoptic passages. This will be a very
helpful resource for those interested in easy access to the
extra-canonical parallels. --The Bible Today
