Bible Myths and their Parallels in other Religions / Being a Comparison of the Old and New Testament Myths and Miracles with those of the Heathen Nations of Antiquity Considering also their Origin and Meaning

The work surveys myths and legends of the Hebrew and Christian scriptures alongside analogous stories from ancient pagan faiths, tracing recurring motifs and arguing for shared origins and meanings. It treats foundational Old Testament episodes such as creation, the flood, and liberation narratives, then examines New Testament themes including the miraculous birth, passion, death, resurrection, and eschatological expectation. Doctrinal practices and symbols such as the Eucharist, baptism, veneration of the virgin, and the Trinity are analyzed for pagan antecedents, while comparisons are drawn between the Christ motif and similar figures in other traditions. The closing chapters synthesize explanations of origin and consider why the religion gained wide influence.
