NOTES

Christians often view Jesus's miracles simply as proofs of his divinity. However, as prolific author Vern Poythress shows in this new book, they also serve as "signs of redemption," foreshadowing the salvation that Christ accomplished through his cross and resurrection. This means that the stories of Jesus's miracles-like the calming of the storm or the feeding of the 5,000-are relevant for both Christians and non-Christians alike, clearly pointing to the gospel. After setting forth a framework for viewing all of Jesus's miracles through this lens, Poythress then reflects on the meaning and significance of 26 distinct miracles recorded in the Gospel of Matthew-helping modern readers understand and apply them to their own lives today
