Jesus The Socialist (1908)

by Dennis Hird

Book Overview

Jesus The Socialist is a book written by Dennis Hird and published in 1908. The book explores the idea that Jesus was a socialist and that his teachings and actions were in line with socialist principles. Hird argues that Jesus' message of love, equality, and social justice is fundamentally socialist and that his teachings have been misinterpreted by capitalist societies. The book provides a historical context for Jesus' time and place, and examines the economic and political systems of the era. Hird also looks at the role of the church in perpetuating capitalist ideals and argues that true Christianity is inherently socialist. Jesus The Socialist is a thought-provoking and challenging read that provides a new perspective on the life and teachings of Jesus.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
