In Mary, Woman and Mother Fr. Francis Moloney studies the New Testament's presentation of Mary's person and role. After indicating the limits and strengths of a biblical study of Mary, he examines the Marina texts from the Letter of Paul to the Galatians, the Gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luck, the Acts of the Apostles, and the Gospel of John.

This major, paradigm-shifting commentary on Revelation brings Francis Moloney's keen narrative and exegetical work to bear on one of the most difficult and misinterpreted texts in the biblical canon.

The Gospel of Mark, addressed to an early Christian community perplexed by failure and suffering, presents Jesus as suffering Messiah and Son of God. Recognizing that failure and suffering continue to perplex Christians today, world-renowned New Testament scholar and theologian Francis Moloney marries the rich contributions of traditional historical scholarship with the contemporary approach to the Gospels as narrative. Now in paperback, this commentary combines the highest-level scholarship with pastoral sensitivity. It offers an accessible and thoughtful reading of Mark's narrative to bring the Gospel's story to life for contemporary readers.

Internationally respected scholar Francis Moloney offers a Catholic introduction to the New Testament that shows how to read it both faithfully and critically. The opening chapter and an epilogue directly address the theological requirements of, and historical challenges for, ecclesial reading. The remaining chapters give exemplary readings of the figure of Jesus and of the various divisions of the New Testament canon. Conceived as a resource for religious educators, deacons, and other ministers in the Catholic Church, this book will serve Catholics and others as an ideal supplement to a conventional New Testament introduction or as a companion to reading the New Testament itself.
