Only Son - 9381

From the Annunciation to the Resurrection, Only Son weaves together the marvelous storylines of Sacred Scripture to tell the life of Jesus Christ. Guided by the wisdom of St. Thomas Aquinas, and aided by commentary from the Church Fathers, Walter Farrell, O.P., produces a work of exceptional value both for devotional practice and for historical interest. With the four Gospel accounts providing his work’s basic structure, Farrell amplifies the “greatest story ever told” with elaborations on tradition. Especially noteworthy is his commentary and preaching on the role of Mary, Mother of God; on the hidden life of Christ; and on the revelation which Christ, fully God and fully man, gives of what it means to be human. Its composition abruptly ended by Farrell’s untimely death in 1951, Only Son was completed in 1953 with two chapters from the acclaimed Companion to the Summa. Thus does Farrell complete Farrell to create a harmonious, prayerful meditation on the life of Christ, the Father’s only son, “full of grace and truth.”
