Four Gospels, One Jesus? is a considerable achievement: scholarly yet accessible . Graham Stanton, Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity, Cambridge. He (Burridge) has produced a beautiful, readable overview of the four gospels, rich in symbols, highlighting the different and complementary portraits they paint of the central figure, whose biography they record. A book to buy and cherish. Michael Green, Adviser in Evangelism to the Archbishops of Canterbury and York. Here is an introduction to the gospels which, because it combines so well prayer and worship and scholarship, has a vitality and freshness about it which I find immensely appealing.
