The Humanity Of Jesus (1913)

The Humanity of Jesus, written by Maurice Meschler and first published in 1913, is an exploration of the human nature of Jesus Christ. Meschler, a Jesuit priest and theologian, argues that while Jesus is often seen as divine, it is important to also understand his humanity in order to fully appreciate his teachings and significance. The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the historical context in which Jesus lived, including the political and social climate of ancient Palestine. The second part delves into the human qualities of Jesus, such as his emotions, physicality, and relationships with others. Meschler argues that Jesus was fully human and experienced the same struggles and joys as any other person. The final part of the book examines the implications of Jesus' humanity for Christian theology and spirituality. Meschler suggests that by recognizing Jesus' humanity, Christians can better understand their own humanity and the importance of living a moral and compassionate life. Throughout the book, Meschler draws on biblical texts and theological traditions to support his arguments. The Humanity of Jesus is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of an often-overlooked aspect of Christian theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
