Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Lives: Further Studies in the Life of Christ Twenty-Six years ago I was led by "God´s unseen Providence, which men nickname ´Chance,"´ to write and publish a "Life of Christ." It was based on long study, primarily of the Four Gospels and the Old and New Testaments, and, next, of all the sources of knowledge open to me, from the most ancient to the most modern. Manifold as were the imperfections of my work - of which no one is more conscious than I am myself - the book was found useful, and has not only been read in all parts of the English-speaking world, but has also been translated into many languages - even into Japanese. It has been most widely disseminated in two translations throughout the whole of the Russian Empire, and has brought me many expressions of gratitude alike from English-speaking readers and from foreigners of every rank. I desire to record my humble thankfulness to God for permitting me to render this service - however small - to what I believe from my heart to be the cause of Righteousness and Truth. Since my "Life of Christ" was published, much criticism, alike favourable and adverse, has been written upon it. But with perfect readiness to modify any statement which can be disproved, and to alter any error which can be demonstrated, I have seen no reason to correct a single conclusion of the smallest vital importance. It is therefore needless for me, and it would be superfluous, to attempt to re-narrate the external incidents in the mortal days of the Saviour of Mankind. In some pages, however, the subject has obliged me to revert to considerations on which I have already dwelt.
