The dedicated deist, rationalist and scientist Thomas Jefferson believed that the New Testament contained some of the finest moral lessons ever written. He also believed that they were diluted by religious dogma and superstition. To this end, he created his own version of the New Testament, deleting all of the supernatural elements. This edition duplicates the text of a 1904 edition created for the US Congress. Illustrated and with an introduction.
