Excerpt from The Carpenter and His Kingdom The introduction of Jesus and John is sudden and dramatic. Although cousins, they were apparently strangers to each other. They followed widely diver gent pathways - pathways which however widely apart now merged in an angle for a moment before diverging again. Scientific men have utterly failed to locate the spot where the meeting occurred. It is just as well. It was the locality of the spirit from which a new way led out - away out - to the ends of the earth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
