By Ralph Hall Ferris

Book Overview

""Tempted In All Points"" is a historical play written by Ralph Hall Ferris and originally published in 1915. The play is divided into three acts and three visions, and it explores the story of Jesus Christ's temptation in the wilderness as depicted in the Bible. The play begins with Jesus being baptized by John the Baptist and then being led into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit. From there, Satan appears and attempts to tempt Jesus with various offers of power and wealth. Each time, Jesus resists the temptation and reaffirms his commitment to God. Throughout the play, Ferris weaves in elements of historical and cultural context, such as the political climate of the Roman Empire and the Jewish customs of the time. The play also includes a cast of supporting characters, including John the Baptist and various disciples of Jesus. Overall, ""Tempted In All Points"" is a dramatic retelling of one of the most significant moments in the life of Jesus Christ, exploring themes of temptation, faith, and the struggle between good and evil.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
