Galilee In The Time Of Christ Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Galilee in the Time of Christ The object of this work is to represent Galilee as it was in the time of our Lord. To do this will be, the author feels, a special service to many who are desirous of learning all that can be known of the earthly life of Christ. In fairness to the reader, it should be stated that the substance of this volume appeared as an Essay in 1874, which met with a very flattering reception in England, Germany, and America. The text for the present edition has been thoroughly revised and partly re-written. It is published now in the hope that the perusal of these pages will lead some minds to appreciate more forcibly than they have ever done before that the country where the Master appeared was Divinely chosen for that purpose, and that its natural features symbolise in a great degree both the beauty and the strength of the Christian Religion.

Excerpt from Geographical Pamphlet: Palestine in the Time of Christ Whoever would study the life of Jesus Christ must study the geography of the Land where He lived. What teacher or pupil can clearly understand the events of His public ministry who does not understand the effect on the people of the geographical conditions which made it possible for Him to labor more successfully with the people' of Galilee than He could have done with the people of Judea: who can not locate approximately the cities on the Sea of Galilee; who does not, in brief, thoroughly know the land where He wrought His mighty works? There are several large, comprehensive works upon the historical geography of Palestine which are invaluable for the student who would know the land in all its details, or for any one to use as books of reference, but the lack of a small book containing all that is essential for the study of the life of Christ and yet no more than teachers must know and pupils can readily learn, has led to the preparation of this book for the use of teachers and pupils alike. The aim of the writer has been to give all the essential facts in an orderly, clear and interesting way. Teachers realize that a knowledge of the geography of Palestine is essential to a correct understanding of the Gospel narratives, but in their short lesson period each week they have not time to impart this knowledge orally, nor could they do this successfully unless the pupils are themselves provided with maps and diagrams. From the large colored relief map in the book pupils can gain a better understanding of the altitudes and depths Of Palestine's sur face than from any other map published. Besides the three full-page maps the numerous small maps and diagrams will be found very helpful. An important feature of the book is the map. Work assigned; the outline maps at the end of the book are to be filled in by the pupils in accordance with the directions given. After the four parallel regions are taught by text and map and sectional diagrams on page 4, for example, directions are given for tracing them upon the outline map provided on page 33; after the extent, char acter and importance of the Maritime Plain have been taught on page 5, di rections are given for coloring it on the large relief outline map page 37; etc. Pupils will find the work called for very interesting, and this practical work can not fail to make their geographical knowledge gained a permanent pos session.

Excerpt from The Galilean: A Portrait of Jesus of Nazareth Jesus, it will be seen, limited his action entirely to the Jews. Although his sympathy for those despised by ortho doxy led him to admit pagans into the kingdom of God although he had resided more than once in a pagan country, and once or twice we surprise him in friendly relations with unbelievers it may be said that his life was passed entirely in the very restricted world in which he was born.
