Publisher's Synopsis
Christ and the Kingdom of God is a book written by S. H. Hooke and published in 1919. The book is a theological exploration of the concept of the Kingdom of God as presented in the Bible, with a particular focus on the teachings of Jesus Christ. Hooke examines the historical and cultural context in which Jesus lived and taught, and argues that his message was centred on the establishment of the Kingdom of God on earth. He explores the various ways in which this concept has been interpreted throughout history, and offers his own interpretation based on a close reading of the biblical texts. The book is written in a scholarly style and is aimed at an academic audience, but is also accessible to anyone with an interest in Christian theology and the teachings of Jesus. Overall, Christ and the Kingdom of God is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of one of the central themes of Christian theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
