It essays to give an answer to two questions which interest all who follow the advance of Christian theology, or are attracted to the comparative study of religion and morals. The two main questions the author held in view are: Are there any original or distinctive elements in the moral teaching attributed to Christ? And, if that teaching takes its place in the natural evolution of morals, what were the strains or traditions which we may recognize as contributory to the Christian ethic? Contents: problem of Christ; Egyptian morals; morality in Babylonia and Persia; evolution of Jewish morality; Greek moralists; morality in the Roman Empire; the Gospels; parables of the gospels and the Talmud; parallels to the teaching of Christ; personality in the gospels. |
