Publisher's Synopsis
Six Nights in the Garden of Gethsemane is a book by Russell H. Conwell that explores the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The book is based on the biblical account of Jesus' final days on earth, particularly his time in the Garden of Gethsemane, where he prayed and ultimately surrendered to God's will. Conwell's book offers a unique perspective on these events, examining them through the eyes of the disciples who were with Jesus during this time. The book is a powerful and moving exploration of faith, sacrifice, and the human experience of facing difficult choices and challenges. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, as well as those seeking to deepen their own spiritual understanding and connection with God.1924. In late 1869 and early 1870, Rev. Conwell was traveling in the Holy Land and while in Jerusalem employed a wise old monk as a guide. As he took the Reverend around, he told of many interesting traditions, combinations no doubt often of fact and fancy. They were permeated with the clearest gospel truth that they were most illuminating to sacred places and events. As their acquaintance ripened, Reverend Conwell spent many evenings with the monk in the Garden of Gethsemane where they discussed at length life and events of Biblical times, and here it was that he told Reverend Conwell of the stories that are found in this volume.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
