A History of the Goddess: From the Ice Age to the Bible

En savoir plus sur le livre

Before the rise of monotheism, the early Hebrews were pagan and the Old Testament tells the story of the divorce of God from his wife, the Mother Goddess. Many familiar Bible characters are reinterpreted in a fresh light; Moses, King Solomon, Jezebel, and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The Bible stories are contrasted to the older goddess mythology from Mesopotamia about Inanna and Ishtar and the goddess mythology from Greece and Egypt.
