In August of 1916 Glover wrote in the preface to The Jesus of History: "This book has grown out of lectures upon the historical Jesus given in a good many cities of India during the winter 1915-16. Recast and developed, the lectures were taken down in shorthand in Calcutta; they were revised in Madras; and most of them were wholly re-written, where and when in six following months leisure was available, in places so far apart as Colombo, Maymyo, Rangoon, Kodaikanal, Simla, and Poona. The reader will not expect a heavy apparatus of references to books which were generally out of reach." Glover continues: "The aim of the book, as of the lectures, is, after all, not to achieve a final presentment of the historical Jesus, but to suggest lines of study that will deepen our interest in him and our love of him."

T. R. Glover (1869-1943) began his academic career studying ancient history, and this early interest became the clear and substantial basis for his later work in New Testament studies. He was the author of major books on Jesus, Paul, the world of the New Testament, as well as on numerous classical themes and topics.
