Excerpt from Jesus Brought Back Meditations on the Problem of Problems This little book upon the sublimest character in history is written neither to instruct the specialist nor to amuse the curious. Its aim is to give intelligent and earnest inquirers, who have no time for extended research, some of the most important results of recent scholarship upon this topic and other related subjects, together with certain observations bearing upon the religious life, suggested by these discoveries. While it has been prepared for the purpose of helping on that intellectual reconstruction of religion which is fast sweeping aside so many notions long held respecting the origin and nature of Christianity, yet the chief object has been to set forth an interpretation of the character and teaching of Jesus which will make him more attractive, and his gospel more powerful in human lives.
