This book is indeed a "gift"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
One of the best books I have ever read on the last days of Christ's life is this book, "The Gift." I expected the usual method of presentation, a step by step discussion following the chronology of those days. Instead, Mr. Johnson organizes the book by the different feelings and experiences that Christ had, and examples of those feelings. For instance, one chapter is on the pain of being rejected, another of being misunderstood. An interesting twist is the use of imagination in parts of the book. For example, how would a shopkeeper respond to the events of the crucifiction weekend? It adds to the personal flavor, and makes you feel like you are really there. An excellent technique.Thoroughly researched and footnoted, this is a must read for any person who wants to truly understand the events of those crucial days.
