Produktbeschreibung
Justice, truth and goodness are willed by a higher power. The progress of reason was fatal only to the false gods. The true God of the universe, the one God, He whom men adore when they do a good deed, or when they seek the truth, or when they advise their fellow men aright, is established for all eternity. It is the certain knowledge of having served, after the author's own fashion, despite all manners of defects, this good cause which inspires him with absolute confidence that this book will be of service to religious progress. As in the case of the "Life of Jesus," Renan demands for the present volume, dealing as it does with very obscure times, a little of that indulgence which it is usual to grant to seers, and of which seers stand in need. Supposing he is wrong on certain points, he is certain he has rightly understood as a whole the unique work which the Spirit of God, that is to say the soul of the world, has realized through Israel.
The History of the People of Israel Till the Time of King David, written by Ernest Renan, is a comprehensive account of the early history of the Jewish people. Renan delves into the origins of the Israelites, tracing their journey from the time of Abraham to the reign of King David. He explores the religious and cultural practices of the Israelites, their struggles and triumphs, and the impact of their faith on their daily lives.Renan's book is a rigorous work of scholarship, drawing on a wide range of historical and archaeological sources to provide a detailed and nuanced account of Israelite history. He examines the role of prophets, judges, and kings in shaping the destiny of the Jewish people, and provides a richly textured portrait of the social, political, and economic conditions of ancient Israel.At the same time, Renan's book is also a work of literary and philosophical reflection, exploring the meaning and significance of Israelite history for contemporary readers. He considers the legacy of the Israelites for Western civilization, and reflects on the enduring relevance of their faith and traditions.Overall, The History of the People of Israel Till the Time of King David is a masterful work of history and scholarship, offering a rich and insightful account of one of the world's most ancient and influential peoples. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Jewish history, religion, and culture.1894. Justice, truth and goodness are willed by a higher power.
