Synopsis

Excerpt from The Friendships of Jesus We need scarcely make an apology for introducing a work by Pere Ollivier to English readers. His name is not confined to France. He has established a reputation, as an eloquent preacher and cultured writer, that has travelled far beyond the confines of his native country. Pie styles his book a simple study, which he dedicates to his friends, but we find in it evidence of research and learning that betrays the modesty of the author. The better to prepare himself for his work, several months were spent in Palestine, visiting the scenes that witnessed the friendships of the Redeemer, and the book has received a setting worthy of the characters it portrays. Pere Ollivier is profoundly versed in the literature of the age. He has measured the evils it contains and the good of which it is capable, with a precision that few can equal, and he is thoroughly equipped both by experience and knowledge to grapple with the social and religious problems that agitate society, and to point out the surest way of remedying the calamities he so eloquently deplores.
