Frederic W. Farrar, an esteemed Doctor of Divinity, Fellow of the Royal Society, and late fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, breathes life into the story of Christ in this comprehensive work. As a chaplain to the Queen and Canon of Westminster, Farrars faith is unquestionable. Delving into the life, death, and resurrection of Christ, Farrar illustrates the miracles of Christ without shying away, presenting Him as the ultimate lawgiver of nature. A scholar with intimate knowledge of Biblical Greek, Latin and other languages, Farrars first-hand experience of the Holy Land and vast studies, including Jewish sources, enrich his account. The book is a beautiful retelling of Christs life, filled with deep religious insights and contextual observations. Although footnotes from the print text are not included here, the exhaustive research underpinning this work will satisfy even the most meticulous scholar. Heralded as a timeless classic among religious scholars, The Life of Christ offers enlightenment to believers and non-believers alike.
