A Man Among Men Jesus came to represent the character of God, in living out the holy law of Jehovah. In every lesson he gave to his disciples and to the people, he sought to define clearly its principles. By personal obedience to the law, he invested the common duties of life with a holy significance. He lived a man among men, and in all his teachings sought to remove the wall of separation which the Jewish nation had built up between themselves and other nations by their false conceptions and traditions. He lived among the people, he shared their poverty and their griefs. He dignified life in all its details by keeping before men the glory of God, and by subordinating everything to the will of his Father. His life was characterized by supreme love to God, and fervent love to his fellowmen.

Jesus kom for at åbenbare Guds væsen ved i et og alt at leve efter Jehovas hellige lov. Hver gang han underviste sine disciple og folket, søgte han at klarlægge lovens grundsætninger tydeligt. Ved selv at adlyde loven gav han livets almindelige pligter en hellig betydning. Han levede som et menneske blandt mennesker, og i al hans lære forsøgte han at fjerne den skillemur det jødiske folk havde opbygget imellem sig selv og andre folk, ved deres falske opfattelser og traditioner. Han levede blandt folket, han delte deres fattigdom og deres sorger. Han højnede livet i alle dets små tildragelser ved at vise mennesker Guds herlighed og ved at lægge alt ind under sin Faders vilje. Hans liv var præget af den højeste kærlighed til Gud og inderlig kærlighed til hans medmennesker.
