In submitting to the reader Antiquity Unveiled, we feel sure that its contents will fill a vacancy that has long existed in the field of literature. Shrouded in mystery as the origin of Christianity has always been, the evidence contained within this volume seems destined to draw aside the veil and let the light of truth shine upon its history.
A very good look at aphrodisia from history...everything from phallic symbolism to foods that excite the sexual senses.
The five books of Aphrodite published in one volume! This fictional tale of our most mysterious goddess.. the goddess of love.
The Jewish religion and its offsprings have produce more 'sacred texts' than most religions, but many have been hidden from people by the church.
Many of the Catholic faith are familiar with the Book of Baruch in the Catholic Bibles and the Apocrypha, but few are acquainted with the apocalyptical writings of Baruch which are more far-reaching in their scope.
Writing at the time of the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 ad, Baruch converses directly with God in a series of visions. The fall of Jerusalem is given as part of a larger end-of-the-world scenario. Baruch then receives prophecy: periods of light and darkness shall come, symbolized by rains bright and black, corresponding to alternating times when humanity lives in peace and harmony, then dark periods when evil reigns. Of particular note is the apocalypse when the Messiah appears again on earth. This alternate tale of the apocalypse inspires hope evil is punished, condemned to hell and cast off the earth, while those - left behind - are actually the righteous who will enjoy, literally, heaven on earth. Obviously a differing view from the currently in-vogue idea of 'rapture.'
