The Life of Jesus Christ for the Young, Vol. 4 by Richard Newton
"The Life of Jesus Christ for the Young, Vol. 4" by Richard Newton is an educational religious work written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the events surrounding the final days of Jesus, including his anguish in the Garden of Gethsemane, betrayal by Judas, and the subsequent trial and crucifixion. Through its narrative, the book likely aims to impart moral lessons to young readers about faith, suffering, and thesignificance of Jesus's sacrifice. The opening of this volume presents the moment when Jesus is led to trial before Pontius Pilate, detailing the reluctance of the Roman governor to find fault in him, yet succumbing to pressure from the priests and the crowd. Newton uses this backdrop to highlight the loneliness of Jesus's suffering, emphasizing the betrayal by Judas and the abandonment by his disciples during a time of deep anguish. The narrative is accompanied by lessons about prayer, sin, submission to God’s will, and the importance of tenderness, reflecting on how these themes were manifested in the actions and experiences of Jesus and highlighting moral reflections pertinent for young readers.
