Foreword / John C. Cavadini -- Preface. -- Part I. The infancy narratives and the baptism of Jesus: 1. The conception of Jesus : the salvific act of the incarnation -- 2. The birth of Jesus : the epiphany of the salvific act of the incarnation -- 3. The baptism and temptation of Jesus. -- Part II. Jesus' public ministry: 4. Jesus' priestly salvific acts : initiating the kingdom of God -- 5. Jesus' prophetic salvific acts : promulgating the law of the kingdom of heaven -- 6. Jesus' filial relationship with his father. -- Part III. Prefigurements of Jesus' passion, death, and resurrection: 7. Peter's profession of faith and the transfiguration -- 8. Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. -- Part IV. The passion narratives: 9. The anointing of Jesus and the last supper -- 10. Jesus' agony, arrest, and trials -- 11.

Summary: This significant new work of Christology-- a full-scale systematic study of the mysteries of the life of Jesus-- analyzes the Incarnation, Mariology, the virginal conception, the apostolic life and teaching, transfiguration and miracles, and the atoning death and glorification of Christ, presented in clear and accessible form. The author's longstanding study of historical exegesis, classical patristic doctrine, and modern Christological controversies is present in the background and gives rise to a deeply integrated theological portrait. This book is the fruit of a lifetime of learning and teaching but also of meditating profoundly on the mystery of Jesus Christ.
