The Man of Sorrows by John Nelson Darby

Description

The Man of Sorrows is a book by John Nelson Darby, first published in 1867. A devotional and exegetical work rooted in Darby’s close reading of the Gospel of Luke, this book explores the person and sufferings of Christ with plain, pastoral clarity. Written as a chapter-by-chapter reflection, it blends biblical commentary with devotional meditation — drawing readers toward a sober appreciation of Christ’s suffering, service, and redemptive work. The tone is earnest and unadorned, suitable for private reading, sermon preparation, or small-group study. Placed in the context of Darby’s wider writings, the work reflects the 19th-century evangelical emphasis on Scripture, personal piety, and careful exposition. Although Darby is often remembered for his influence on dispensational thought, this book is best read as a pastoral commentary that foregrounds the incarnate and atoning aspects of Jesus as set forth in Luke.
