The Lord
Introduction by Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI)
Philosopher and theologian Romano Guardini offers readers a picture of Jesus Christ through an attentive and obedient meditation on the living Word of God. In these spiritual commentaries on the life of Jesus, from the nativity to the Passion and Resurrection, Guardini explains that we must not attempt to shape Jesus according to our will, deciding how and what we want Our Lord to be, but that we must approach Him in the spirit of total conversion, and surrender ourselves completely to His divine will in obedience and faith.
“Monsignor
Guardini... has written more than just a life of Jesus. He places that life
in the context of history and shows how the teachings of Jesus are related to
the whole body of church doctrine and practice.”
—New York Times
“This
book is a masterpiece. It embodies the wealth of modern exegetical criticism
opened by Protestant theologians like Karl Barth, the greatest traditions of
‘devotio moderna’, French seventeenth-century thought, the great
insights of the Catholic mystics, and the matured speculation of scholasticism.
But above all, it is an approach to Christ through the Gospels.”
—H.A. Reinhold, Commonweal
“Guardini’s
book The Lord has not grown old, precisely because it still leads us to that
which is essential, to that which is truly real, Jesus Christ Himself. That
is why today this book still has a great mission.”
—Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI)
