The Harmony of the Gospels

The Harmony of the Gospels by Saint Augustine is a profound exploration of the unity and coherence of the four Gospel accounts–Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. In this masterwork of biblical scholarship, Augustine addresses apparent discrepancies and variations in the Gospel narratives, demonstrating their divine harmony and mutual support in conveying the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. With his characteristic intellectual rigor and deep faith, Augustine examines the unique perspectives and audiences of each Gospel, showing how together they form a complete and consistent portrait of the Savior. His meticulous analysis and theological insights offer readers a richer understanding of the Gospels, inviting them to see the divine purpose behind the differences in the evangelists’ accounts. This timeless text is not only a foundational work of Christian apologetics but also a testament to Augustine’s genius as a thinker and theologian. The Harmony of the Gospels continues to inspire and guide readers in their study of Scripture, making it an essential resource for theologians, pastors, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the New Testament.
