Book: The Jesus Mysteries Was The Original Jesus A Pagan God by Timothy Freke
The lively and energetic style of this book will give the ordinary reader a rare insight into what may be called the New Age of Antiquity, and thereby also to the obscure and intriguing beginnings of Christianity. Scholars will appreciate the thorough Documentation, specified in hundreds of footnotes. Professor Alvar Ellegard, author of Jesus: One Hundred Years Before Christ.Powerful, provocative and extremely well written. Impressive throughout and a really enjoyable read. This book is a milestone and if it succeeds, as I hope it does, it will no doubt feel the heat from the academic fire it is fanning. Mark Vidler, author of The Star Mirror
The parallels between Paganism and Christianity that Freke and Gandy advance are impressive. The Jesus Mysteries will come as something of a shock. Believing Christians will find it disturbing; Evangelicals will be horrified by it; Fundamentalists will no doubt ascribe it to the devil. Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy demonstrate clearly and unambiguously that much of Christian belief and practice draws on Pagan traditions. This controversial thesis will be dismissed by many readers, but the meticulous footnoting of sources, both ancient and modern, will cause others to wonder if this book ought to be taken more seriously than many recent rewritings of history.
