Item description from seller

Language: English. About The Book : Excerpt from The Jesus of History I regard it as a high privilege to be associated with this volume. Many who know and value Mr. Glover's work on the con?ict of Religions in the Early Roman Empire must have wistfully desired to secure from his graphic pen just such a book as is here given to the world. He possesses the rare power of reverently handling familiar truths or facts in such manner as to make them seem to be almost new. There are few gifts more precious than this at a time when our familiarity with the greatest and most sacred of all narratives is a chief hindrance to our ready appreciation of its living power. I believe that no one will read Mr. Glover's chapters, and especially his description of the parable-teaching given by our Lord, without a sense of having been introduced to a whole series of fresh and fruitful thoughts. He has expanded for us with the force, the clearness, and the power of vivid illustration which we have learned to expect from him, the meaning of a sentence in the earlier volume I have alluded to, where he insists that, Jesus of Nazareth does stand in the center of human history, that He has brought God and man into a new relation, that He is the present concern of every one of us and that there is more in Him than we have yet accounted for.This book has grow out of lectures upone the historical jesus given in a good many cities of India during the winter 1915-16. Recast and developed, the lectures were taken down in shorthand in Calcutta; they were revised in Madras; and most of them were whole rewritten, where and when in six following months leisure was available, in places so far apart as Colombo, Maymyo, Rangoon, Kodaikanal, simla. And Poona. The reader will not expect a heavy apparatus of references to books which were generally out of reach. Here and there are incorporated passages (rehandled) from articles that have appeared in the constructive quarterly, The Nation, The Expositor, and elsewhere. About The Author : Terrot Reaveley Glover (1869–1943) was a Cambridge University lecturer of classical literature. He was a fellow of St John's College, Cambridge.

Richard Glover, was minister of Tyndale Baptist Church.Glover worked as a lecturer for nearly 20 years.

Hansard, records that his resignation and the opinions of Geraldine Hodgson and Professor Gerothwohl concerning "grave reflections upon the administration of the university" were raised in Parliament as a pretext for a Public Enquiry on 1 May 1913.
