The Origin of Pagan Idolatry Ascertained from Historical Testimony and Circumstantial Evidence V1 is a comprehensive analysis of the origins of pagan idolatry by George Stanley Faber. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume focusing on historical testimony and the second volume on circumstantial evidence. Faber argues that the origins of pagan idolatry can be traced back to the early civilizations of Egypt and Babylon. He examines various historical documents, including the Bible and the works of ancient historians such as Herodotus and Diodorus Siculus, to support his thesis. The book also delves into the symbolism and meaning behind various pagan idols, such as the sun, moon, and stars. Faber argues that these idols were used to represent various deities and were often associated with natural phenomena such as the changing of the seasons. Overall, The Origin of Pagan Idolatry Ascertained from Historical Testimony and Circumstantial Evidence V1 is a detailed and scholarly examination of the origins of pagan idolatry. It provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion and the development of human civilization.1816. Volume I of III. Faber was an obscure English divine, the author of some twenty-seven books, mostly on standard theological subjects, or on such topics as The Revival of the French Emperorship Anticipated from the Necessity of Prophecy. He was also a latter-day Christian mythologer intent upon the business of explaining away all myths and gods as simply corrupt versions of the Bible. This is an extensive three volume work detailing the typology between Pagan Idolatry and the Noahic History in the Bible. A must for historicists dealing with biblical history who see much Noahic history within pagan history and mythology. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
