Review Quotes: "By offering a text that was used by an early Church community, A Gospel Synopsis attentively addresses the ongoing methodological discussions surrounding the preeminence of reconstructed eclectic texts of the Greek New Testament. The layout and clarity of the work is exceptional; and along with its careful transcriptions [of these seminal ancient manuscripts], this volume will become an invaluable tool for New Testament studies." Kent D. Clarke, Trinity Western University, Canada "The completeness and accuracy of this Gospel Synopsis is to be applauded. At one and the same time, it intensifies the complexity of the synoptic problem while also greatly facilitating the investigation of it. It serves both synoptic and text-critical studies very well."
