To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With equal plausibility might it be main- ' tained that, according to Christ's teaching, publicans and harlots were as such fit subjects of the divine kingdom. The truth is that poverty and sorrow were not, any more than bad character, positive qualifications for citizenship, but merely conditions that were likely to act as predis- posing causes, preparing men to listen with interest to the announcement that the kingdom was at hand.
The prominence given to the poor in the Gospel of the f 1 Vie ...de J&us, pp. 179, 183.
130 THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
kingdom, in so far as it had theoretic significance, and was not the spontaneous expression of compassion, marked the value set by Jesus on man as man. The poor represent man stripped of all extrinsic attributes of honour, and reduced to that which is common to all mankind. On this naked humanity the world has ever set little value. It begins to interest itself in a man when he is clothed with some outward distinction of wealth or birth or station. A mere man is a social I nobody.
