The Most Important Words of Jesus - Hardcover
by Gerhard Lohfink (Author), Linda M. Maloney (Translator)
2024 Association of Catholic Publishers Third Place Award, Scripture
What Jesus taught through his preaching made an unforgettable impression upon his disciples. But it was the many succinctly formulated sayings of Jesus that stood out from the start because of their clear structure and vividness. In The Most Important Words of Jesus, renowned scholar Gerhard Lohfink focuses on the power, beauty, and seriousness of these seventy central sayings of the Lord. When the Church confesses that Jesus is not only truly human but also truly God, that means he is the perfect image of God, God's definitive word. It rests on the majestic claim that revealed itself, modestly, discreetly, and yet clearly, in every one of the seventy "sayings" or logia of Jesus. In this book, Lohfink helps us to understand what Jesus is talking about in these sharply defined words.Author Biography
