Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oft Told Tales Retold "Prove all things, hold fast to that which is good." These stories were taken from the Holy (?) Bible - at least that was on the cover. The object in treating them in every-day language is not to make light of sacred things, or to destroy any one´s faith in the All-Good, but to discover truth and if possible to tear away the mantle of hypocrisy that covers with a "Thus saith the Lord" the most unspeakable atrocities in history. I have endeavored to keep as close to the text as possible, barring the few comments, and I think I have treated the subjects with as much reverence as they inspire. The stories in themselves are quite interesting and I trust the reader will leave out that unction that usually attaches itself to the mind on reading the scriptures, and for once, give his mind freedom to act, letting these stories take pot-luck with others of a fictitious character. I do not believe for one moment that the Great First Cause is identical with the Jewish Jehovah who in these stories is endowed with a character a decent man would scorn to possess; whose very name was jealousy (Exodus 34:14), and who was green with jealousy most of the time, who would fly in a passion at the drop of a hat and kill some innocent person to get even with the guilty (Josh. 7:5-24).
