Original title: Miracles and Parables of Our Lord. Volume 1A deep, inspiring, and often challenging study of the Lord Jesus Christ's miracles and parables. Men who were led by the hand or groped their way along the wall to reach Jesus were touched by his finger and went home without a guide, rejoicing that Jesus Christ had opened their eyes. Jesus is still able to perform such miracles. And, with the power of the Holy Spirit, his Word will be expounded and we¿ll watch for the signs to follow, expecting to see them at once. Why shouldn¿t those who read this be blessed with the light of heaven? This is my heart's inmost desire. I can¿t put fine words together. I¿ve never studied speech. In fact, my heart loathes the very thought of intentionally speaking with fine words when souls are in danger of eternal separation from God. No, I work to speak straight to your hearts and consciences, and if there is anyone with faith to receive, God will bless them with fresh revelation. - Charles H. SpurgeonIn this first volume, Charles H. Spurgeon expounds on the following miracles:¿ Jesus heals two blind men by touching their eyes (Matthew 9:27-30). ¿ Jesus uses spit to heal another blind man (Mark 8:22-25). ¿ Jesus passes through the midst of those who would kill him (Luke 4:28-30). ¿ Jesus brings a widow¿s son back to life (Luke 7:11-17). ¿ Jesus releases a woman from a spirit of infirmity (Luke 13:10-13). ¿ Jesus heals ten lepers but only one thanks him (Luke 17:12-16). ¿ Jesus gently rebukes his mother then makes wine for the wedding (John 2:1-5). ¿ Jesus tests a nobleman¿s faith and his son is healed (John 4:46-53).

Published writing changes over time, so I can't tell if some of my issues with this book stem from reading it in the current time (vs. reading it nearer to when it was published) or if it's really an issue. I see some other reviewers made comments similar to what I am going to make which does make me feel better that I was not the only one.
My biggest struggle was the length of the chapters. Spurgeon would start out with a part of scripture that dealt with one of the miracles of parables of Jesus. Sometimes he'd give a bit of a background on it, sometimes he'd just expound on it. But his coverage of the topic seemed to go on far too long. I'd get about halfway through the chapter and wonder how much longer the chapter was going to be--but be afraid to stop mid-chapter because I might lose the train of thought and not be able to jump back in at the same point I'd stopped.
There were a few differences in interpretation between myself and the author too that I noticed, though I couldn't name them now. Another reviewer commented that Spurgeon is a Calvinist. I don't know enough about him to say if that is the truth, but if so, it could explain some of the differences I noted. ( )
