Author Says 2400-Year-Old Temple and Vase Art From Greece Depicted Adam, Cain, Noah, and Other Genesis Figures
Annapolis, MD, January 18, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Solving Light Books announced today the release of "Genesis Characters and Events in Ancient Greek Art", by Robert Bowie Johnson, Jr. The book presents a pictorial history of the human race, painted and sculpted two-and-a-half millennia ago by artists who knew their subjects — their ancestors and the key events in mankind's history — far better than we had ever realized.
The book includes over 150 color images of ancient art, taking the reader from Greek depictions of the serpent-entwined apple tree in the ancient garden, through images of Cain killing Abel on the Parthenon, to images (and the identity) of the Cain-woman who came through the Flood as Ham's wife — and beyond — to her instigation of the post-Flood rebellion against Noah, and her often-depicted celebration of the victory of the way of Cain, and her ultimate glorification by the Greeks as Athena.
"The hallmark of a healthy humanity is a genuine connection to the truth of our historical identity. History, simply put, is what happened. This is exactly what ancient Greek artists communicated to their then-living audience, and now to us."
Robert Bowie Johnson, Jr., Author
According to the book, the Greek gods look exactly like humans because they are humans — our ancestors from Genesis who turned away from God, welcoming the serpent's "enlightenment," and putting their man-centered Greek religious system in place.
The astounding revelations within the book are sure to impact the evolutionism/creation debate, as now we have the exact same story of human origins documented from opposite spiritual standpoints.
Available at Amazon in paperback and Kindle. Please see www.genesisingreekart.com
