The Words of Jesus (Paperback)

Read the teaching of Jesus in large print, in the King James wording, with a short plain-English note before each passage that says who is speaking, who is listening and what the passage covers. The book gathers 29 passages from the four Gospels, from "Blessed are the poor in spirit" in Matthew 5 to his prayer for his own in John 17, and prints each one complete. It is something a screen cannot give: a real book you hold, write in, and hand on.

What is inside

• 29 passages in Gospel order: 10 from Matthew, 2 from Mark, 7 from Luke and 10 from John, 740 verses in all.
• Thirteen whole chapters, among them Matthew 5 to 7 and John 14 to 17, and sixteen shorter passages, such as The Good Samaritan, Ravens and Lilies and Two Men at Prayer.
• A note before every passage, with old words explained where their meaning has shifted, such as mote, husbandman and travail.
• Numbered verses set in 16pt type, with the chapter reference at the head of each passage.
• Ruled lines for your own notes at the end of 25 of the 29 passages, a ruled notes page at the back, and a presentation page for the owner's name, the giver, the occasion and the year.

Who it is for

Older readers who find ordinary Bible print too small, and the families who read with them. It suits anyone who wants the teaching of Jesus gathered in one book, without the whole Bible to search through: to read aloud, to mark over the years, or to give.
