Rabboni by Anthony Kirk - 1984

Chetana Publications, 1984. Hardcover. New. 400pp. Though in the Preface to the first edition the author Anthony Kirk (Nina Kisch in real life) did not claim any credit for this work and was even a bit apologetic about it, there is not the least doubt that Rabboni is a unique addition to the existing Christian literature. In it the author ushers the reader in the presence of the most amazing being that ever walked the earth and acted as the Divine Potter to shape receptacles of glory out of the common clay of human nature. For this is what Jesus the Christ did.The author has projected distinct images of Jesus and his Apostles,described their day-to-day life, their trials and tribulations and has shown how they remained totally uncorrupted in the midst of falsehood and tyranny all round. The spiritual development of the Apostles in the hallowed association of the Master is beautifully delineated in this work. The story of Jesus is charmingly narrated in a manner almost Biblical in its simplicity and grandeur.
