5.0 out of 5 stars Jesus, the Son of Man, A poetic masterpiece, July 28 2008

By Evangeline M. Tanner - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Jesus: The Son of Man: His Words and His Deeds as Told and Recorded by Those Who Knew Him (Paperback)

While Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet is most beautiful and true, his treatise
on Jesus is poetic and is written as though he interviewed each one of the people who knew and loved the man, as well as though who feared and hated him. The words he quotes are as new and expressive as though they had been said yesterday. Gibran loved Jesus and understood what loves and hates and angers Jesus had to deal with in his short thirty years of miraculous living
on this earth. This is a book to keep and treasure and to renew an appreciation of this Son of Man.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, May 1 2010

By Dr. Gunta M. Caldwell "Gunta On Silver Wings" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Jesus: The Son of Man: His Words and His Deeds as Told and Recorded by Those Who Knew Him (Paperback)

Gibran is mystical, poetic with a truly wonderous way of expressing. How can anyone know Jesus and yet Gibran surely did? I see Gibran as a mystic who had the ability to tap into Universe and bring us and bring us thoughts that would otherwiase not be available to us. whether you believe in Jesus or not it is a beautiful book that has much to offer that is profound and deep.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful rendition of the life of Jesus by Kahlil Gibran, Sep 26 2011

By Maria Jose Maranon - Published on Amazon.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Jesus: The Son of Man: His Words and His Deeds as Told and Recorded by Those Who Knew Him (Paperback)

Kahlil gives us little vignettes of the life of Jesus through the words of those who knew him. There are his followers and his detractors, all of whom the Master touched in an indelible way. The poetry of Kahlil Gibran flows in its simple splendor and moving beauty. A book to keep at hand to read over and again; its words keep resonating inside of me long after read. The edition is beautifully crafted, filled with drawings of Gibran himself. Excellent read!
