Synopsis

Where was Christ born? And When? Reason might lead us to conclude that, after nearly two millennia, the problems relating to the place and time of Christ's birth would have been solved to nearly everyone's satisfaction. Such, however, is not the case, and the questions raised by modern scholars have tended to further muddy the waters. One possible reason for the confusion may be traced to the fact that the pioneer work of Sir William Ramsay Was Christ Born in Bethlehem? has been almost entirely overlooked. In fact, most present-day Bible students are familiar with Ramsay's book soley because they have seen it referred to in a footnote. In Was Christ Born in Bethlehem? Ramsay carefully evaluates the historical evidence relating to the place and time of Christ's birth found in the Bible. He then compares and correlates this information with extra-biblical material. The result is a fascinating and informative study which demonstrates conclusively the accuracy and reliability of the biblical record. The reappearance of Was Christ Born at Bethlehem? places the wealth of Sir William Ramsay's vast research within the reach of every earnest Bible student. We welcome the republication of this fine work. -- Cyril J. Barber Author, The Minister's Library

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
