In this book, Gratry provides a critical response to Ernest Renan's Vie de Jésus, a work that interpreted Jesus as a purely human figure. Gratry argues against Renan's hypothesis, emphasizing Jesus' divine nature and the miraculous events in his life. He also challenges Renan's historical methodology and his treatment of biblical sources. The book is a stimulating and well-argued apologetic work, and an interesting contribution to the Jesus studies of the 19th century.
