    About this ebook

    ‘Jesus: the Son of Man’, is a spiritually rejuvenating book where Gibran weaves magic through his words and inspires readers with his narrative skill. In this book, Jesus is portrayed through the words of 77 contemporaries who knew him, including enemies and friends like the Syrians, Romans, Jews, Priests, and Poets. Some are based on actual characters from the New Testament, some are created by Gibran. Upon a day in the spring of the year, Jesus stood in the marketplace of Jerusalem and He spoke to the multitudes of the kingdom of heaven. In this fascinating volume, Gibran presents a view of Jesus' life from the perspective of his contemporaries. Regarded as a literary and political rebel, his romantic style was at the heart of the Renaissance in modern Arabic literature.
    “Thus spoke Jesus, and unto all the kingdoms of the earth I was blinded, and unto all the cities of walls and towers, and it was in my heart to follow the Master to His kingdom.”
