"Who do men say that I am?" Jesus Christ asked his disciples. Roland H. Bainton explores how the centuries have answered. Dr. Bainton shows us how various cultures responded to the impact of the life story of this obscure Galilean who lived two thousand years ago. The mysterious figure of Christ emerges here in a profusion of kaleidoscopic images. A treasure trove of illustrations -- drawings, paintings, and sculptures -- anecdotes and personal reflections, Dr. Bainton's book is a popular testament, an inspiration revelation of the meaning of Jesus Christ, for various peoples from the very first centuries until the present day. -- From publisher's description.
