The Incarnation in the Gospels brings together in one delightful volume the teaching of the Gospels on the incarnation of Christ. All who read this book should experience a deeper devotion to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. -- Jerry Bridges

The Incarnation in the Gospels is an unusual book: a commentary, but on a theme rather than a particular Bible book. It deals with the incarnation, Christmas, in Matthew (“The Hope of Israel”), Luke (“Songs for the Savior”) and John (“The Coming of the Light”). The authors are Reformed in their theology, reliable in their understanding of the passages, and all of them fascinating writers. This book will be a great help to pastors preparing series of Christmas sermons and to lay believers trying to distinguish the real biblical teaching from all the Christmas fluff. -- John Frame, Professor of Systematic Theology and Philosophy, Reformed Theological Seminary

Here is exposition modeled by pastors with scholarly gifts and scholars with pastors’ hearts. Exegetical and theological reliability, redemptive historical sensitivity, a Christ-centered focus, and contemporary practical application—these are the promised hallmarks of the series. May it serve as a model to encourage and enthuse a new generation to love the Word of God and to rediscover the life-transforming power of expository preaching! -- Sinclair Ferguson, Chancellors Professor, Reformed Theological Seminary; Teaching Fellow, Ligonier Ministries
