Publisher's Synopsis
""The Person of Christ"" by Philip Schaff is a comprehensive exploration of the life, teachings, and significance of Jesus Christ. Schaff begins by examining the historical context of Jesus' life, including the political and religious landscape of first-century Palestine. He then delves into the biblical accounts of Jesus' birth, ministry, death, and resurrection, analyzing the key events and teachings that shaped his identity as the Son of God.In addition to his historical and biblical analysis, Schaff also engages with the work of two prominent skeptics of his time: David Strauss and Ernest Renan. He offers a detailed critique of their arguments against the divinity of Jesus and defends the orthodox Christian view of Christ as both fully human and fully divine.Finally, Schaff includes a collection of testimonies from unbelievers who were moved by the person of Christ, including writers such as Goethe, Rousseau, and Voltaire. These testimonies serve as a powerful reminder of the enduring impact that Jesus has had on human history and culture.Overall, ""The Person of Christ"" is a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of one of the most important figures in human history, and a powerful defense of the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
