A Book of the Beginnings (Volume 2) Paperback

After enjoying years as a popular journalist and poet intellectual and freethinker Gerald Massey turned his vast studies in the field of Egyptology into A Book of the Beginnings a bold statement that the origin of all civilization lays in ancient Egypt. His assertions radical at the time-indeed almost a century before the discovery of three-million-year-old human remains in Africa-resonate loudly today when molecular biology is making corresponding discoveries alongside the still-raging creation-versus-evolution controversy. In Volume II Massey intelligently argues an Egyptian origin for Biblical symbology lexicography and mythology. Here he not only asks if the oldest Jewish and Christian axioms were really born on the banks of the Nile he offers a stalwart and profound Yes! British author GERALD MASSEY (1828-1907) published works of poetry spiritualism Shakespearean criticism and theology but his best-known works are in the realm of Egyptology including The Natural Genesis and Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World.
