“The fact that the book lacks continuity diminishes its value, but the treatment of some subjects ... shows a grasp of the real situation and a breadth of vision born only of real contact with a great system of schools. The benefits of co-operation applied to parent, teacher, and pupil are clearly shown.” J. Stanley Brown.

“This book, it seems to me, is one of the significant educational contributions of the year. What makes it significant is in large part the rare combination of philosophic insight with a wealth of practical experience.” Irving E. Miller.

“This is a proper sequel to ‘Constructive studies on the life of Christ’ by Professors Burton and Mathews.... That work was based on the gospels; this is concerned with the remainder of the New Testament. Its successive portions first narrate events and comment upon them, then propose questions and suggestions for study, with supplementary topics and references to literature.... The volume is finely illustrated.”—Outlook.
