Excerpt from In the Likeness of Men: Short Studies in the Life of Our Lord on Earth It has been said that many, possibly most of us, idealise our Lord to such extent that we fail to catch His true likeness as He actually appeared when living among men. In this volume we enter into His life and experiences, are invited to companion with Him, and accompany Him to the home and the market-place, to the fields and the mountains, to look into His face and study His features, and also to listen to His voice, hearing His gracious words of love and pardon. We are present when He addresses in endearing terms those He loves, and condemns in most vigorous language the pharisaical and insincere. We are with Him both in His joys and sorrows, we recline with Him at the meal, and behold Him among His friends and social companions. Journeying with Him in the way we see what manner of apparel He wears, and our hearts burn within us as He reveals the deep and precious things of God. We also follow Him to His resorts of prayer, where He spends the hours of meditation and communion with His Father and finds peace. There will be found in this book both strength for work and rest for weariness. JuDSON Swift. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
