Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of the Old Testament legends, investigating their apparent true sources through the prism of a comparative analysis of relevant mythologies. The author examines the community of language, mythologies, customs, and laws between various nations, arguing for the dissemination of religious conceptions over extensive portions of the globe by the ancient Aryans, particularly from India. The author discusses the primitive religious persuasions and corrupted ideas in religion, focusing on the Vedic faith and its post-Vedic developments. The book traces the transmission of mythologies in post-Vedic times, identifying the deification of powers of nature and the legends common to India and Greece. A final analysis of the broader historical and literary context enriches the understanding of the significance of these insights, offering a fresh perspective on the origins of Biblical representations.
