The Harmony of the Gospels by Saint Augustine is a comprehensive work that attempts to reconcile the four Gospels of the New Testament - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John - into a single, unified narrative. The book is divided into three books, with each book focusing on a different aspect of the Gospels. The first book provides an introduction to the Gospels and their authors, as well as a discussion of the difficulties involved in harmonizing the different accounts. Augustine addresses questions such as why there are four Gospels, why they differ in their details, and how they can be reconciled. The second book is a detailed analysis of the Gospel narratives, with Augustine comparing and contrasting the different versions of events and identifying the common themes and motifs that run throughout. He also provides commentary on the theological significance of these events and how they relate to the larger themes of the Bible. The third book focuses on the Passion narrative, with Augustine providing a detailed analysis of the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. He discusses the various accounts of the Last Supper, the betrayal of Judas, the trial before Pilate, the crucifixion, and the resurrection, and provides his own interpretation of these events. Overall, The Harmony of the Gospels is a scholarly work that provides a comprehensive analysis of the four Gospels and their relationship to each other. It is an important resource for anyone interested in understanding the New Testament and the life of Jesus Christ.THIS 178 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: St. Augustin on Sermon on the Mount, Harmony of the Gospels and Homilies on the Gospels: Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers of the Christian Church V6, by Saint Augustin .
