Like his original hearers many people today find Jesus' sayings hard. Some sayings are hard because they are difficult to understand, others because the demands they make on us are only too clear.

F. F. Bruce examines seventy of the hard sayings of Jesus to clear away the cultural and historical difficulties which keep us from grappling with the real challenge of Jesus' message. Evident in each chapter is Bruce's keen evangelical scholarship and pastoral insight.

F. F. Bruce (1910-1990) was known worldwide for decades as the "dean of evangelical scholarship"--a reputation earned by a lifetime of scholarship, teaching and writing. Trained in classics at the Universities of Aberdeen and Cambridge, his career culminated at the University of Manchester where he served as the Rylands Professor of Biblical Criticism and Exegesis. Among his outstanding publications are New Testament History; Paul, Apostle of the Heart Set Free; The Books and the Parchments; Jesus and Christian Origins Outside the New Testament; and The New Testament Documents: Are They Reliable?
