Summary: A great dive into the Gospel world
Comment: Dr. Cosby has created a great tool to plunge into the Gospels in a way that a beggining student may be starving for and that even a more advanced student would find helpful. He combines his vast knowledge of the world of the authors and hearers alongside with an inductive question-asking approach that will spur the reader on to learn it for themselves. Cosby has great insights and helpful warnings away from poor, but common, exegetical fallacies of popular Christianity. To the reader's benifit, it is very well written, and far from dry.
My only problem would be that some of the questions are a little too obvious and not very helpful, but those are few and I'm sure they would be helpful to some begginers. But on the whole, if you go through this book, you will come out with a great understanding of the Evangelists' writings as well as the first significant steps toward finding the historical Jesus amidst all the noise that surrounds that search today.
