The Life Of Jesus

The Life of Jesus: Critically Examined is a book written by David Friedrich Strauss in 1902. The book provides a detailed analysis and critique of the life of Jesus Christ as portrayed in the Bible. Strauss examines the historical accuracy of the biblical accounts of Jesus' life, miracles, and teachings, and argues that much of the New Testament is based on myth and legend rather than historical fact.Strauss challenges traditional Christian beliefs and argues that Jesus was not the divine Son of God, but rather a human being who was elevated to a divine status through the myths and legends that grew up around him. He also argues that the Gospels were written long after Jesus' death and are therefore unreliable sources of historical information.The book was controversial when it was first published, as it challenged many deeply held Christian beliefs. However, it has since become a classic work of biblical scholarship and has influenced many subsequent studies of the historical Jesus. The Life of Jesus: Critically Examined remains an important work for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the origins of the New Testament.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
