1790 Life of Jesus Christ Fleetwood Bible ART Miracles Jerusalem MAP Holy Land
“No event that ever did, or perhaps will happen, can more remarkably display the wisdom and power of the great Jehovah, than the glorious manner in which he brought life and immortality to light, by the gospel of his Son, manifested in the flesh.”
– Fleetwood, Life of Jesus Christ
A rare 18th-century example of John Fleetwood’s famous book on the life of Jesus. This book uses biblical passages as a basis for this ‘biography’ of the life of Jesus Christ. Fleetwood covers the birth of Jesus, the angelic visitation to Mary, decree of taxation and the massacre of infants, Jesus’s baptism, first miracles, temptation in the desert, calling of disciples, Jesus curing leprosy and palsy, and the trial, crucifixion, and resurrection.
Curiously, this folio London edition was published under the title “The New and Complete Life of…Jesus Christ” by Paul Wright; however, according to the OCLC it is another edition of Fleetwood’s famed “life of Jesus”.
