Simon Magus is a book written by G.R.S. Mead that explores the life and teachings of the enigmatic figure known as Simon Magus. Simon Magus was a magician and religious leader who lived during the first century AD and was a contemporary of Jesus Christ. He is mentioned in the New Testament as a sorcerer who attempted to buy the power of the Holy Spirit from the apostles.Mead delves deep into the life of Simon Magus, examining his teachings, his followers, and the controversies that surrounded him during his lifetime. Mead also explores the early Christian Church and the various factions that emerged during this time, including the Gnostics and the Ebionites.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of Simon Magus and his teachings, while the second part focuses on the history of the early Christian Church and its relationship with Simon Magus. Mead draws upon a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, historical records, and archaeological evidence, to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of Simon Magus and his impact on religious history.Overall, Simon Magus is a fascinating and thought-provoking book that sheds light on one of the most mysterious and enigmatic figures in religious history. Mead's meticulous research and engaging writing style make this book a must-read for anyone interested in the history of religion and the early Christian Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
