I found the book to be very thoughtful reading, and it took comparing the Jefferson Bible alongside a standard Bible to see which things he eliminated because he considered them unscientific or unbelievable. The content which remained was still convincing, but without exaggeration, in my mind.

Interesting Bible
Had heard of the Jefferson Bible and found it interesting to see how Jefferson selected the passages and sections HE felt were important. As one of our founding fathers, it gives us an insight as to the man and his mindset.

Jefferson Bible
A very interesting view of one of our founding Fathers
religious beliefs. A well thought through document with a very unusual insight to his times.
