New Testament Made Easier Part 1: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John

David J. Ridges, Springville, Utah: Bonneville Books, Gospel Studies Series, 2002, 6x9" softbound, 329 pages.

Understand the New Testament as never before. The Savior's mortal ministry and atoning sacrifice are felt as well as studied. In-the-verse notes provide a unique teaching tool which allows you to read the complete Bible text of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John while being taught the meaning of difficult Bible words and phrases, symbolism, doctrine, culture and setting. Notes between the verses clarify and alert you to major concepts and messages.

Gain instant, basic understanding as you read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John with the help of in-the-verse notes.

Example: Matt. 5:29 And if thy right eye (symbolic of specific temptation, bad environment, friends, bad habit, specific sin, etc.) offend thee (puts you in spiritual danger), pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. (JST Matthew 5:34. And now this I speak, a parable concerning your sins; wherefore, cast them from you, that ye may not be hewn down and cast into the fire.)

Transfer these notes into your own scriptures to help now as well as in the future.

Better understand the symbolism in the Savior's parables.

Quickly look up a specific verse or chapter.
Review for a lesson, talk or family night discussion.
