Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Renan's Life of Jesus The following translation Of Renan's Vie de je'sns is made from the thirteenth edition of the complete work, which embodies the author's more mature views Of his subject. SO far 351 am aware, the English renderings already existent are either made from earlier editions, or from an abridged version which Renan prepared for popular reading. Owing to the limits Of the Series to which this volume belongs, inclusion of the author's elaborate preface, introduction, appendix, and notes has been found impossible. These features appeal however to the specialist rather than to the general reader, and, for the latter, their absence scarcely impairs the interest Of the work itself. In an edition for English readers, I have thought it desirable to collate all the author's biblical quotations with the Revised Version of the English Bible. And to give the references.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Students Life of Jesus The aim of this volume is different from that of the great lives of Christ which enrich and adorn the Christian literature of our century. For, first, it does not seek to discuss the teaching of Jesus in detail. This is regarded as a distinct theme, and is considered only in so far as seemed necessary to a clear account of the character and life of Jesus. The reader is asked to bear this fact in mind, and not to hold the book responsible for a full explanation of all the words of Jesus.

Download or read book The Life of the Lord Jesus Classic Reprint written by Louise Seymour Houghton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of the Lord Jesus One of the fundamental principles of The Bible Study Union is that Sunday-school lesson helps should never be of such a character as to take the place of the personal study of the Bible itself in the preparation of the lesson. The tendency of helps which do this is to drive the Bible out of the Sunday-school, and to make the opinions of men about the Bible, rather than the Bible itself, the basis of instruction. One evil result of such helps appears in the practical disuse of the Bible in many Sunday-school classes at the present time. For use in the Sunday-school, the Bible without note or comment is much better than the best possible notes and comments without the Bible. It is equally true, as stated by the author of The Bible Study Union Lessons in The Andover Review for October, 1892, that "we need all the help we can get in studying the Bible; we cannot have too much of it, provided it is really help;" that is, if it is of such a character that it helps to a better understanding of the sacred text, but does not take the place of that text as the basis of study. Much such help can be gathered from historical and geographical works, from commentaries on the gospels, and from the various lives of Christ, of which we now have such rich abundance. The Manual, published in connection with The Bible Study Union Lessons, is designed to afford a large measure of such help. It is because the accompanying Life of the Lord Jesus, by Mrs. Houghton, is of this character that we gladly republish it from the columns of The Evangelist as revised, and to a large extent rewritten, by herself, for use in connection with the lessons on The Gospel History of Jesus Christ. Each chapter takes up the Scripture material of one lesson and throws much light on its meaning, as well as upon its circumstances and surroundings.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Earliest Sources for the Life of Jesus This second edition of Source: differs very little from the first, partly because the limited size and scope of the work allowed for little change, but still more because there are very few changes that I wish to make. It may seem to some that I have given excessive space to the Gospel according to Mark, but I am convinced that not even yet is the supreme historical importance of that work sufiiciently appre ciated either by the general public or by many professed scholars. If my little book has stimulated anyone to study it more closely for themselves, it will not have been written in vain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Jesus, Vol. 1 of 1 Dost thou recall, from the bosom of God where thou reposest, those long days at Ghazir, in which, alone with thee, I wrote these pages, inspired by the places we had visited together? Silent at my side, thou didst read and copy each sheet as soon as I had written it, whilst the sea, the villages, the ravines, and the mountains, were spread at our feet. When the overwhelming light had given place to the innumerable army of stars, thy shrewd and subtle questions, thy discreet doubts, led me back to the sublime object of our common thoughts. One day thou didst tell me that thou wouldst love this book - first, because it had been composed with thee, and also because it pleased thee. Though at times thou didst fear for it the narrow judgments of the frivolous, yet wert thou ever persuaded that all truly religious souls would ultimately take pleasure in it. In the midst of these sweet meditations, the Angel of Death struck us both with his wing: the sleep of fever seized us at the same time - I awoke alone!... Thou sleepest now in the land of Adonis, near the holy Byblus and the sacred stream where the women of the ancient mysteries came to mingle their tears. Reveal to me, O good genius, to me whom thou lovedst, those truths which conquer death, deprive it of terror, and make it almost beloved.

Download or read book Life of Jesus Classic Reprint written by Ernest Renan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Jesus The twelve earlier editions Of this work differ from one an other only in trifling changes. The present edition, on the contrary, has been revised and corrected with the greatest care. During the four years since the book appeared, I have laboured incessantly to improve it. The numerous criticisms to which it has given rise have rendered the task in certain respects an easy one. I have read all those which contain anything important. I believe I can conscientiously affirm that not once have the outrage and the calumny which have been imported into them hindered me from deriving profit from the just Observations which those criticisms might contain. I have weighed everything, tested everything. If in certain cases people should wonder why I have not answered fully the censures which have been made with such extreme assurance, and as if the errors alleged had been proved, it is not that I did not know of these censures, but that it was impossible for me to accept them. In such cases I have gen erally added in a note the texts or the considerations which have kept me from changing my opinion, or else by some slight change Of expression I have endeavoured to show wherein lay the error of my critics. These notes, though very brief and doing little more than point out the original sources, are still enough to Show the intelligent reader the rea sonings that have guided me in the composition of my text. TO answer in detail all the charges that have been brought against me, it would have been necessary for me to triple or quadruple this volume. I Should have had to repeat thingswhich have already been well said, even in French. I must have gone into religions controversy, - a thing that I abso lutely forbid myself to do. I should have had to speak Of myself, a thing I never do. I write in order to put my ideas before those who seek the truth. As for those persons who in the interest of their belief must have it that I am an ignora mus, a lying spirit, or a man of bad faith, I make no attempt to modify their opinion. If that opinion is necessary for the peace of mind of certain pious people, I should feel a genuine scraple at disabusing them.
