Bag om The Origin Of Pagan Idolatry V1

""The Origin of Pagan Idolatry"" is a historical and theological analysis of the origins of idol worship in various ancient cultures. Written by George Stanley Faber and originally published in 1816, this book draws from a wide range of historical and circumstantial evidence to argue that the practice of idolatry can be traced back to a common source in the ancient Babylonian religion. Faber examines the similarities between the various pagan religions of the ancient world, and argues that they can all be traced back to a common ancestor. He also explores the role of mythology and symbolism in these religions, and argues that they were all attempts to explain the mysteries of the natural world. This book is a fascinating look at the history of religion and the origins of some of the most enduring and influential religious practices in human history.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
