Reviews

'Fans of Hans Kung who have not yet seen this important book will no doubt want to. Critics of his views ought to see it to look again at his account of the situations and controversies in which he was involved. Those interested in the history of theological thought...might read it as an important contribution from a major theologian.'   'Controversial, vigourouss, courageous, always thoughtful'   'The man and the theology are bound together with passion and excitement.'
*Baptist Times*

'Valantasis's present work allows one to read the reconstructed "Q" source straight through. The translation has a promised freshness...'
*Church Times*

'Valantasis' commentary provides a generally reliable guide to the theology of Q....the point of the book by Valantasis, [may be] to make Q accessible to a wider public.' ~ Paul Foster, Expository Times, 1 August 2006
