Summary: I echo the previous writer
Review: OK, what's going on here? I was about to order this book for a friend. It's one that I keep on my bookshelf and reference every once in a while. And it's not in print any longer? I'm not sure why. Rhodes does a good job showing the preincarnate Christ. He supports himself well, and there are a number of interesting appendices to boot. I only wish I could order it, but alas, it's not available. Truly, too bad...

Summary: A+ Work On A Little-Known Topic
Review: This is a topic that is not-very-much discussed in Christian circles. Although many Christians assume that the first we read of Jesus Christ is at his birth, Rhodes thoroughly demonstrates that Jesus Christ is intimatily active in the pages of the Old Testament as creator, preserver, shepherd, savior, and more. He also effectively weaves together the Old and New Testaments. And the 7 appendices really fill out the book. They're historical and theological additions which weren't necessary but are a tremendous blessing. They make the book an A+.Rhodes does a great job writing at a level that most people can understand. I recommend this book for anyone seriously examining Christianity as it focuses on the very heart of our faith - Jesus Christ.

Summary: uninspired
Review: Very simple minded. A better book could be written with much more depth.
