Alexander Whyte’s concluding volume of character sketches are drawn from the men and women in the parables found in the Gospels of Luke, Matthew, and Mark. Subtitling this volume Our Lord’s Characters, Whyte’s examination of these personalities offers a unique perspective of the parables of Jesus. Whyte also explores the angels contained in the letters to the seven churches of Asia from the book of Revelation.
No one takes a stronger grip on us—mind and very soul—in his expounding of Bible characters than Dr. Whyte
—The Presbyterian Review
We know of no writer who can make more real the personalities of these Bible characters, or can bring home more vividly or helpfully the lessons of their words and deeds.
—Christian Guardian
Each subject is handled with originality, freshness, skill, and sanctified scholarship.
—English Churchman
Terse, strong, epigrammatic in his style, he penetrates to the core of character, and expounds it, and all the lessons it teaches, in fine English.
