Download or read book Commentaries on Hebrew and Christian Mythology written by Parish B. Ladd and published by Pantianos Classics. This book was released on 1896 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ladd's commentaries on the mythological aspects of Judaism and Christianity are illuminated by his depth of scriptural knowledge and thorough researches. This eclectic work examines extant writings of a variety of ancient civilizations to shed light upon the myths and stories of the Hebrews. Ladd looks into the ancient Chaldeans, the Egyptians, the Greeks and even the Hindus of the East to arrive at his conclusions. The author's desire is to uncover how Judaism and later on Christianity began, in the context of the religious and cultural events which preceded their establishment. Spending years amid volumes of disparate and obscure sources, Ladd sought to condense and combine their insights into this single book, that curious readers may discover such history with relative ease. Individual monuments and stone tablets, plus surviving examples of writing upon papyrus, are among the original sources Ladd consults. The Bible, from the life of Moses and the Exodus from Egypt onwards, is examined at length. The author disagreed with the conventional explanations, whether regarding the life of certain figures, or the authorship and origins of various texts. Thus, much of this work seeks to validate and support the author's assertions to the farthest extent possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commentaries on Hebrew and Christian Mythology The claim which has so long been persistently maintained of the supernatural origin of Christianity and its Christ has at last been met by positive denials, and thereby an issue has been raised. Because of the natural difficulty of proving a negative, the rule has long since been permanently established that he who asserts a thing which is denied must first offer proofs sufficient to make a prima-facie case, before the party denying the allegation is called upon for a defense. Has the church ever made sufficient proof that its religion and its founder were of supernatural origin to call for counter-evidence? We think not; but this claim has been made, and for nearly nineteen hundred years it has been acquiesced in by a very large and respectable body of men calling themselves Christians. It may be said, not without some show of reason, that this long acquiescence is equivalent to proof sufficient to make a prima-facie case. Assuming such to be true, we are put on the defensive, but with the right to enter a special plea as to the force of the proof offered by the church, and under this plea we may criticise the church's position, and inquire: First, whether such a man as Christ is said to have been ever lived; second, if he be a real person, then what do we know of and concerning his sayings and doings.

Tabor, Journal of Religion "Fredriksen confronts her documents—principally the writings of the New Testament—as an archaeologist would an especially rich complex site. With great care she distinguishes the literary images from historical fact. As she does so, she explains the images of Jesus in terms of the strategies and purposes of the writers Paul, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John."—Thomas D’Evelyn, Christian Science Monitor

Book Synopsis The Christian Mythology by : E. B. Leatherbee
Download or read book The Christian Mythology written by E. B. Leatherbee and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian Mythology is a study on the Christian folklore and how much the heathen rituals influenced the development of a certain version of Christianity in different parts of the world. The goal of the work was to show that the modern religion doesn't offer much new or different from what has been believed in the many epochs of the past. Religious feelings of primitive man were driven by fear and superstition and the various forms of worship predominated in different geographical situations. Christianity, like all primitive or modern religions leans on the ancient myths and legends, taking a somewhat different version in various geographical locations, but with the same form as every religious system.

Book excerpt: The Hebrew Bible stole with both hands from Canaanite myth (proof was dug up in Syria in 1928). Biblical scholars agreed to reinter the evidence, to maintain the "literal" truth of the Scripture-be it as certain revelation or a dubious historical data. But the Bible is as full of Pagan mythology as a snake's egg is of snake. here you'll find it cited in full: the sky-gods, world-mountains, war-goddesses, and chaos-dragons-the secret heathen dreams of "Monotheism"-the hydra- head faces of God.
