Jefferson Bible - The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth

The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth, known as the Jefferson Bible, was created by Thomas Jefferson in the early 19th century. This work is a compilation of selected passages from the New Testament, focusing solely on the ethical teachings of Jesus while omitting miracles and supernatural elements. Jefferson's intent was to distill the moral philosophy of Jesus, making this text notable for its secular approach to Christian doctrine and its reflection of Enlightenment values.
