Not illustrated. 1876 edition. Excerpt: ...jealous and cruel tyrant, when he ordered the innocent babes to be slaughtered, asked from the Magians (St. Matthew ii, 7) the accurate time of the appearance of the star, and why he slaughtered the Bethlehemitic children, euro Sctov9 tcai Karcoripo) (ii, 16), "a bimatu et infra." For, indeed, according to your thesis and my additional proofs, that 3 before our era--birth of Christ, there were two years of the tetraeterid elapsed, in which the heliacal rising of the dogstar had corresponded to the 1st Mesori vague. I think no other hypothesis accounts so well for the Sterols or bimatus as mine, and we have thus found the very source of Herod s question and the Magians' answer. IV. This question of Herod's about the exact time of the appearance of the star was not made without a good reason, concerning, as it did, the birth of a new king: irov 6 rexOeh /3ao-tXev? row 'IovSalcov, "Where is the (new-) born King of the Jews?" the Magians themselves had asked. This character as a "King of the Jews" remained, in fact, attached intimately to the Messias till His death, the death on the cross, with the inscription, "Jesus Nazarenus Rex JudaBorum." Hence the very excited suspicion of the jealous tyrant, who was himself an intruder upon the last national dynasty of the Hasmoneans. In the sacred books was announced a new king from David's stem--the more reason to Herod for fear, who did not spare even a son of his in the general slaughter of Bethlehem. It has been deemed a proof to the contrary, that Flavius Josephus keeps a deep silence about this Herodian deed; but he may have forgotten to mention it, not having found it in the work of his warrant, Nicolaus Damascenus, courthistorian of Herod. But this...

The prince sent men to slay him (the youth). 15. He was in his house. The girl said, "By the Sun, if he is slain I will die too, 16. I will not pass an hour of life (without) him."

Not illustrated. 1893 edition. Excerpt: ...of the Hebrew Elone Mamre. Drua was considered as a proper name, and Mamre, changed into Mavri, was rendered by the Slavic translator as black. Thus arose this otherwise inexplicable name. Of the historical proofs, the most incontestible lies in the fact that all theological literature, in the widest sense of the word, reached the Slavic through the medium of the Greek, aud that even a Greek MS. of it seems to be preserved in the library of Vienna.1 The stories, however, came originally from the poetical East, with its fantastic imagery, and amidst the influences of similar pictures of olden times. The fathers of the Church, who have preserved for us the name of this apocrypha, have also recorded the name of the sect in whose midst it first arose, namely, the sect of the Set/nans, who beheld in Seth the son of Adam the true Christ aud Redeemer from hereditary sin. It would carry me too far afield were I to be more explicit as to this, and especially were I to dilate on the heretical agitation in Asia Minor, and to follow out in these texts traces which have been almost obliterated by time. In reference to this I wish to point out the "threefold Judgement " mentioned here, of which the orthodox church knows nothing. At every step we meet parallels to the various incidents of this legendary story, both in the corresponding Jewish literature, and in the apocalyptic which has developed out of it. 1 Cf. Fabririu, Codex pseuclepigraphicus Vt. Test. I, pp. 417-418, and, It. (Hatter, Literature populara ronmna, Bucuresti, 18S3, pp. 311-317. I will reserve to myself for some future work the investigation of thene parallels. For the present it will suffice if I merely refer to the principal sources, or rather the most striking...

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1885 edition. Excerpt: ...entirely repudiate the authority of Plutarch, Diodorus, Horapollo, and Hermes Trismegistus, as exponents of Egyptian ideas. To suppose, like M. Dev6ria, that neo-Platonic forgeries of the Christian period can throw any light, except a thoroughly false one, upon mythological writings more than two thousand years older, is to misconceive the nature of philosophy as well as that of mythology. Far more instructive than the explanation of any one myth or legend, is the discovery of the process of mythformation, and consequently of the true method of interpretation; especially when it is found that the same kind of process has been going on, not only among all Indo-European races, but, as nearly as can be ascertained, all over the world. One and the same natural phenomenon does not necessarily give rise to the same myth everywhere, but the process by which myths are derived from it is everywhere the same. Every national mythology has, in the first instance, to be investigated according to the facts which are furnished by its own language and literature; but these facts derive much light from the analogy of corresponding facts in other mythologies. It is hardly necessary to acknowledge that reasoning supposed to follow analogy is often most fallacious; but this is only the case when a real analogy does not exist. Among the truths which a study of comparative mythology has made very evident, there are two or three upon which I think it necessary to insist most strongly. It is an entire mistake to seek in myths for religious, metaphysical, ethical, or political ideas, or for physical theories. Myths in themselves have nothing to do with religion. Religion hi itself has nothing to do with mythology. Religious feelings have indeed very often centred...

Public interest in biblical archaeology is at an all-time high, as television documentaries pull in millions of viewers to watch shows on the Exodus, the Ark of the Covenant, and the so-called Lost Tomb of Jesus. Important discoveries with relevance to the Bible are made virtually every year--during 2007 and 2008 alone researchers announced at least seven major discoveries in Israel, five of them in or near Jerusalem. Biblical Archaeology offers a passport into this fascinating realm, where ancient religion and modern science meet, and where tomorrow's discovery may answer a riddle that has lasted a thousand years. Archaeologist Eric H. Cline here offers a complete overview of this exciting field. He discusses the early pioneers, such as Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie and William Foxwell Albright, the origins of biblical archaeology as a discipline, and the major controversies that first prompted explorers to go in search of objects and sites that would "prove" the Bible. He then surveys some of the most well-known biblical archaeologists, including Kathleen Kenyon and Yigael Yadin, the sites that are essential sources of knowledge for biblical archaeology, such as Hazor, Megiddo, Gezer, Lachish, Masada, and Jerusalem, and some of the most important discoveries that have been made, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Mesha Inscription, and the Tel Dan Stele. Subsequent chapters examine additional archaeological finds that shed further light on the Hebrew Bible and New Testament, the issue of potential frauds and forgeries, including the James Ossuary and the Jehoash Tablet, and future prospects of the field. Biblical Archaeology: A Very Short Introduction captures the sense of excitement and importance that surrounds not only the past history of the field but also the present and the future, with fascinating new discoveries made each and every season. About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

Not illustrated. 1882 edition. Excerpt: ... the Asiatic goddess discovered hy Major di Cesnola about four hours distant from Salamis in Cyprus, is one in which the mural crown of the deity is supported on a row of eagles. These eagles, though not double-headed, are in the Hittite style. On another image the lowermost of the three necklaces which adorn the goddess (as also at Hissarlik) has the winged solar disk hanging from it. 2 "Trans. Soc. Bibl. Arch.," IV, p. 336. restore; it should run. J. A part of which may ' correspond with the word (or words) &, ./y? found in one I 1 of the inscriptions from Carchemish. (J. I, Col. D, line 4.) Mr. Davis further heard from a friend of a Hittite inscription of five lines carved on a tablet cut out of the rock on the summit of a hill about midway between Chifteh Khan and the silver mines of Bulgar. The inscription.is however almost effaced, but some of the characters copied by Mr. Davie's friend show that it was Hittite. The copy is engraved in Davis's "Life in Asiatic Turkey" (1879), p. 222.' Mr. Edmund Calvert, H.B.M. Consul in Rhodes, has informed me of another Hittite monument in the same neighbourhood. Some years ago a trader, told him that near Frahtin, which seems to be not far from Ibreez, he had seen a rock-sculpture representing a large figure in pointed tiara and tip-tilted shoes, which must be the portrait of a deity, and two smaller figures standing before it. The large figure of the god was on the right, his two worshippers on the left, in the reverse position to that of the figures at Ibreez. The sculpture was accompanied by characters, one or two of which Mr. Calvert drew for me from memory, and they turned out to be Hittite. I now come to two monuments which are for several reasons the most...
