Baird Whitlock has conflated the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John into a single, continuous narrative, in which every word of the originals has its place. One of the results of his work is to clear up some of the difficulties of the text and some of the apparent contradictions. His purpose throughout has not been to advance or question this or that theological interpretation; it has been to make more fully available to the reader the foundation of the Christian Scriptures.
To read this retelling of the Gospels in the words of all four authors is to gain a richer understanding of the text. The Gospel will lead readers back to the original Gospels with new insights into their significance and a deeper appreciation of their beauty.
