Preface

This book has grown out of a detailed study of the Gospel according to Mark, as the earliest existing source of information about the life of Jesus. The study developed a point of view, and turned attention to one phase of the great subject which was opened. There can be no doubt that the life of Jesus is hereafter to be studied from the standing-point of personality. This is to be the new approach to a new understanding of the significance of the Master’s life. Immense possibilities of unfolding truth lie in this direction. If this book can help any in taking a single step toward this new understanding, the hope of the author will be fulfilled.

The book is not intended to be a technical theological treatise. Its thought is couched in popular terms. While it is meant to direct the understanding of the reader along a certain upward path, it is also meant to serve in a devotional way by bringing the imagination and heart of the reader nearer to the Master.
