Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the Life of Christ A few years ago I prepared a Guide to the Lives of Christ for English Readers. Its purpose was to give a general view of the course of modern thought concern ing the life of Christ, and especially a brief description of each of the more important Lives, written in Eng lish or accessible in translation. The need of some such guide for the inexperienced student is evident, when one realizes how many Lives of Christ, written from various stand-points and differing greatly in scholarship, are presented for his choice. This work is now out of print; so I have added it, somewhat condensed and brought down to date, as an Appendix to the present volume. If this book shall furnish to my students an intro duction to the broad and fascinating fields of Gospel criticism, I shall be satisfied. If it shall be of service to others who may wish to know what these fields contain, I shall be greatly pleased.

Download or read book The Life Teaching of Jesus Christ Classic Reprint written by William Boothby Selbie and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life Teaching of Jesus Christ This little book makes no claim to an exhaustive treatment of its great subject, nor even to be an original contribution to it. It is intended as an outline or introduction for those who are beginning the study, and who have no special critical or theological knowledge. The aim throughout has been to summarise the results of modern investigation from the constructive standpoint, and to show that when criticism has had its perfect work enough remains for faith and devotion. The subject is one which raises many problems of which no final solution is possible in the present state of our knowledge. The writer would acknowledge his obligations to many modern writers on the period, to some of whom reference is made in these pages, and among them especially to his old teacher, Dr. Sanday of Oxford, to whom all students of the New Testament owe an incalculable debt.

Download or read book The Life and Words of Christ Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Cunningham Geikie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Words of Christ, Vol. 1 To write the story of such a Life is no easy task, but it is one beyond all others important for the best interests of the age. It is impossible to describe the infinite dignity of His person; but His words and acts are His legacy to us, which it is vital to study and apply. I have tried in this book to restore, as far as I could, the world in which Jesus moved; the country in which He lived; the people among whom He grew up and ministered; the religion in which He was trained the Temple services in which He took part; the ecclesiastical, civil, and social aspects of His time; the parties of the day, their Opinions and their spirit; the customs that ruled; the influences that prevailed the events, social, religious, and political, not mentioned in the Gospels, that formed the history of His lifetime, so far as they can be recovered.

Download or read book Life of Christ written by Fulton J. Sheen and published by Image. This book was released on 1977-08-16 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widely proclaimed a classic work of Christian faith, Life of Christ has been hailed as the most eloquent of Fulton J. Sheen's many books. The fruit of many years of reflection, prayer, and research, it is a dramatic and moving recounting of the birth, life, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Christ, and a passionate portrait of the God-Man, the teacher, the healer, and, most of all, the Savior, whose promise has sustained humanity for two millenia. With his customary insight and reverence, Sheen interprets the Scripture and describes Christ not only in historical perspective but also in exciting and contemporary terms -- seeing in Christ's life both modern parallels and timeless lessons. His thoughtful, probing analysis provides new insight into well-known Gospel events. An appealing blend of philosophy, history, and biblical exegesis, from the best-known and most-loved American Catholic leader of the twentieth century, Life of Christ has long been a source of inspiration and guidance. For those seeking to better understand the message of Jesus Christ, this vivid retelling of the greatest story ever lived is a must-read.

Download or read book A Chronological and Geographical Introduction written by Ch Ed Caspari and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Chronological and Geographical Introduction: To the Life of Christ It might perhaps appear strange that in studies like Biblical geography and chronology, which have been so abundantly treated of, and from so many points of view, there should yet remain important discoveries to be gleaned; but the enigma is solved when it is considered that the exegetes have seldom drawn their chronology and geography - regarded by them as subordinate questions - from the sources themselves, but have received them at second or third hand; that, on the other hand, professional geographers and chronologists, even the Masters among them, are no exegetes, but are often misled by inaccurate translations of the Gospels. This evil I have earnestly striven to avoid, inasmuch as in all the sources I have had recourse to the original text, and that, in addition to the sources of which my predecessors have availed themselves, I have ransacked the books of Jewish tradition - hitherto, to the great loss of the cause, too much neglected. The literature bearing on the subject is not easily acces sible; the Patristic, archaeological, and Talmudic writings, as well as the descriptions of travels, are often difficult to find. The more am I under obligations on this account to honoured friends who have been helpful to me in this respect, especially to Professor Reuss of Strassburg, as well as to the librarians of the City Library at Strassburg,1 and of the Protestant and Catholic Seminary Libraries there, who have favoured me with advice and help. And so may this little book, notwithstanding its defects and imperfections, go its way under the Lord's blessing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Life of Jesus: An Investigation of the Historical Sources The reign of facts is more extensive to-day than ever before. Fewer people do homage to theories; fewer are charmed by mystery. Sci ence has descended from the airy conjectures of hasty generalization, and seeks now the solid ground of ascertained fact. The deductive method has yielded to the inductive, with an immense gain to calm reason and assured knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Christ, Vol. 1 Although ever bearing in mind the attempts that in recent years have been made to impugn the credibility or reduce the significance of the Gospel narrative, the writer has abstained from all historical, critical, and doctrinal discussions, as alien from his object. He trusts, however, that such a simple recital of the incidents in Christ's life as the following pages present, may help to create or to deepen the conviction that the natural and supernatural are so inseparably interwoven in the narrative that if you take away the latter you leave the former inexplicable the blending of the two being essential to the coherence and consistency of the record; and that the human and the divine so meet and mingle in the complex characterbf our Lord, and in their combination were so singularly illus trated in his words and acts, that if his divinity be denied, his humanity becomes mutilated, stained, and degraded.
