Publisher's Synopsis
The Political and Social Significance of the Life and Teachings of Jesus is a book written by Jeremiah W. Jenks. The book explores the impact of Jesus' teachings on politics and society. Jenks delves into the historical context of Jesus' life and teachings, examining how they were received by his contemporaries and how they continue to influence modern political and social movements. The book covers a range of topics, including Jesus' teachings on poverty, wealth, and social justice, as well as his views on government and authority. Jenks argues that Jesus' teachings have had a profound impact on the development of Western civilization and that they continue to be relevant today. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of religion, politics, and society, and it offers readers a deeper understanding of the enduring legacy of Jesus' life and teachings.1911. The material used in the preparation of this series of lessons has mainly been the gospels, but the author had been interested in reading some other books that have treated this same subject. The author felt the chief intellectual characteristics of Jesus were his spirit of impartiality, his broadmindedness, and his aloofness from selfish interests. It is easily seen that these beliefs are the basis of Jenks' interpretation of some of Jesus' teachings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
