'The original commentary runs to a daunting 2000 folio pages in Latin, but it would be a manageable and fruitful exercise to re-read Luke with Dales' fluent summary of Bonaventure as a guide. I commend this admirable work of piety and scholarship to all who care for godliness and good learning.'Very Revd. Dr. John Arnold, Church Times, 20th July 2018'The Revd Douglas Dales' Divine Remaking: St Bonaventure and the Gospel of Luke is a wonderful introduction to Bonaventure's Commentary on the Third Gospel. Dales provides us with a helpful and manageable digest which shows us why Bonaventure's understanding of Scripture and Revelation are so necessary in the twenty-first century. Dales supplies the reader with a lively fleshed-out biography peppered with anecdotes, and also sets him in the context of his time. It is a must-have for every Franciscan library and for anyone with an interest in Franciscan life and history.'Peter Flynn, Fairacres Chronicle, Volume 51, Number 1, Summer Edition 2018
