THE LIFEOFJESUS THE CHRIST,BYHENRY WARD BEECHER.

From the Boston (Mass.) Traveller.

“This work has a deeper purpose to serve than that of mere ornament. It is the product of a life of thought and loving labor in study of the character and life of Jesus, and a remarkably successful career of presenting it to the popular mind in the ministry of the pulpit.

“The demand for this book will be great among the searchers after knowledge, and it will be a standard for Christian homes and libraries. It is destined to exert a tremendous influence, not only in this day and generation, but in all time.”

By the Rev. Joseph P. Thompson, LL. D., from an article in The Independent.

“That which first impresses one in Mr. Beecher’s book is the maturity of the work, both in its conception and in its execution. If any have expected to find in it rhetorical fancies struck out at extemporaneous heat, declamatory statements—‘the spontaneities of all his individual personal life’—projected from some fusing centre of philosophy within, but not welded into logical consistency, they have yet to know Mr. Beecher through this book, as working by method upon a well-ordered scheme of thought, and with a deep philosophic purpose toward one great, overmastering conception. He has neither thrown off his random thoughts nor strung together his best thoughts; but has brought all his powers, in the maturity of their strength, in the richness of their experience, and the largeness of their development, to produce a work that may fitly represent the labors and the results of his life.”
