The childhood of Jesus (Paperback)

Customer Review

"Childhood of Jesus" appears as a small book (190 pages) very simple in both form and substance. For Benedict XVI, talk and comment on sources and sacred texts on Christ's childhood is both an introduction (a posteriori) at its two comprehensive volumes on Jesus and a return to the source of the Incarnation.

The tone is very educational and focuses more particularly to demonstrate the historical roots (facts, a time, explanations) of the Divine Mystery. The interrogation and statements of Benedict XVI on the historical date of Jesus' birth, proved he seems -7 -6 or is this very revealing title of these concerns.

More conventionally, the book also focuses on a very pure work of exegesis on the Announcement, the Conception, Birth, Adoration of the Magi and the flight into Egypt and the Presentation in the Temple. In its conclusion, the Holy Father stressed the importance of the concept of freedom: "Freedom of Jesus is not the freedom of Liberal. It is freedom of the Son and that is the freedom of the truly pious. As the Son Jesus brings a new freedom, though not that of one who is unrelated, but freedom of the One who is totally united to the Father and which helps men achieve freedom of intimate union with God. Jesus did not come to destroy, but to fulfill "
