Synopsis

Excerpt from From the Pyramids to the Acropolis: Sacred Places Seen Through Biblical Spectacles

SO far from' this being the case, if Moses had never led Israel out Of Egypt, and if Paul had never been shipwrecked, and if John had never been exiled to Patmos, all the places mentioned in this book would be absorbing, or Inspiring, or solemnizing, or In some way mightily suggestive. Such rivers, such seas, such rocks, such archipelagoes! But when you add to their natural attractions the holy reminiscences which they excite, those places hold you with a power that will never relax.
