This volume was published in 1983 by the German Vocational Information Center as part of its illustrated series “Come and See. [Meditations on the Life of Jesus]” Each of its fifty theological meditations corresponds to an image in the famous Egbert-Codex or the Gospel Books of Otto III and Heinrich III. By means of this interplay of texts and pictures, Balthasar aims to offer an aid to personal prayer and contemplation of the theandric being and action of Jesus Christ.
