Herod Through The Opera Glass is a tragic play in three acts written by Reginald John Farrer and published in 1901. The play is based on the biblical story of King Herod and his order to kill all male infants in Bethlehem in an attempt to eliminate the newborn Jesus Christ. The play explores the psychological and emotional turmoil of Herod as he struggles with his own guilt and the consequences of his actions. The story is told through the lens of an opera, with the characters singing their lines instead of speaking them. The play features a cast of characters including Herod, his wife, his advisors, and the people of Bethlehem. Throughout the play, there are themes of power, betrayal, and redemption. Herod Through The Opera Glass is a thought-provoking and emotional work that delves into the complexities of human nature and the consequences of our actions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
