Jefferson Bible - The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth | Books of American Wisdom | For Spiritual Study & Historical Research

Jefferson was an incredible man in many, many respects. Monticello is still one of the very most thoughtfully laid out, planned and executed working farms ever built! Even back during the beginnings of The United States, Jefferson was interested in knowing why the main religions of the world are always at each others' throats, instead of being unified in purpose. He wanted to know what the differences between the Holy writings of the Bible (Christian), The Tanakh (Jewish), and The Koran (Muslim) were. Over a period of years, with all three laid open on his desk, and going page by page, he compared the three. He did this while he was President! He removed anything that could not be proven or verified, anything that was mythical or fantastical like the Seven Headed Beast, Resurrection, etc, everything that contradicted itself, and everything else that didn't exactly match up between all three books. What Jefferson ended up with was a distillation, if you like, of all things the three main religions all agreed on. It is the very heart and core of what he believed faith should be. He believed that if you could get all three religions to see only these agreed on parts, there would be nothing like Jihad or Crusade, or any of the other reasons supposedly Holy men have used to set one religion against the others in bloodshed. This is an extremely interesting piece of religious work for anyone who is still seeking Him!!
