The Legend Of Thomas Didymus

Reprint of the original, first published in 1881.

Excerpt from The Legend of Thomas Didymus: The Jewish Sceptic The purpose of this book is to reproduce the times in which Jesus appeared, the characters who surrounded him, the opinions, beliefs, and prejudices of the Jewish sects and people. After this, Jesus himself comes before us, not as we now think of him, idealized by the reverence and worship of centuries, but as he may have appeared to the people of his own day, - a prophet, one full of divine power, yet a man like themselves. I have tried to show how some were attracted, and some repelled, by his claims and his character. Especially I have endeavored to enter into his own purpose and expectation, his own view of the Messiah and his kingdom. This book comprises the results of many years' study of the life of Jesus, and may be considered a brief commentary on the four Gospels.
