Specifikacia The Gospel According to Jesus Mitchell Stephen
The Gospel According to Jesus, by eminent scholar and translator Stephen Mitchell, is a unique presentation of the life and teachings of Christ. In this book, Mitchell does for the Gospels what he did for the Tao Te Ching: he uncovers in a great spiritual classic a depth, clarity, and radiance which have until now been obscured.At the center of the book is a new translation of what might be called the Essential Gospel.
