This volume covers the three Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, the first three books of the New Testament. It is the second of three volumes addressing these three gospel accounts which are collectively referred to as the "Synoptic Gospels" because they each tell many of the same stories, but from different perspectives. Included lessons address the period from immediately after the death of John the Baptist to just prior to Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem at the beginning of the Passion Week.
