The Jefferson Bible - The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth

by Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, created his own Bible by extracting the moral teachings of Jesus from the four canonical gospels. The Jefferson Bible is a unique and fascinating book. It is a product of Jefferson's own religious beliefs, which were deist in nature. Jefferson believed that Jesus was a great moral teacher, but he did not believe that he was divine. Jefferson's Bible is a collection of passages from the four gospels that he considered to be the most important. He removed all of the supernatural elements from the gospels, such as miracles and resurrection. He also removed any passages that he considered to be contradictory or irrelevant. The result is a book that is focused on the moral teachings of Jesus. It is a short book, but it is packed with wisdom. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the teachings of Jesus or the religious beliefs of Thomas Jefferson.
