""Folklore In The Old Testament V2: Studies In Comparative Religion, Legend And Law"" is a book written by James George Frazer and published in 1919. The book is a comprehensive study of the folklore, mythology, and religious beliefs that are present in the Old Testament of the Bible. Frazer, a renowned anthropologist and folklorist, explores the connections between the stories and traditions found in the Old Testament and those of other cultures and religions.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific theme or topic. These include the creation story, the flood myth, the story of Adam and Eve, and the Ten Commandments. Frazer draws upon a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, archaeological findings, and folk traditions, to provide a detailed analysis of each of these topics.Throughout the book, Frazer emphasizes the similarities between the stories and beliefs found in the Old Testament and those of other cultures and religions. He argues that these similarities are evidence of a common human experience, and that the stories and traditions found in the Old Testament are part of a larger, universal mythology.Overall, ""Folklore In The Old Testament V2: Studies In Comparative Religion, Legend And Law"" is a fascinating and insightful exploration of the folklore and religious beliefs that are central to the Old Testament. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion, mythology, or anthropology.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
