Mazzaroth - Hardcover

by Frances Rolleston (Author)

Mazzaroth is a book written by Frances Rolleston that explores the connection between the stars and the Bible. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part discussing the constellations and their meanings in ancient cultures, such as the Babylonians and Egyptians. The second part of the book focuses on the zodiac signs and how they relate to the Bible, specifically in terms of prophecy and the life of Jesus Christ. Rolleston argues that the stars were created by God and have a purpose in revealing His plan for humanity. She also provides insights into the symbolism of the constellations and how they relate to the teachings of the Bible. This book is a fascinating exploration of the intersection between science and religion, and is sure to appeal to readers interested in both topics.This volume contains the Constellations Parts I-IV, including Mizraim: Astronomy of Egypt. The object of this work is to show, by the combined testimony of tradition and of ancient writers, and from the meaning of the yet extant ancient names of stars and emblems, that they were invented to transmit the earliest and most important knowledge possessed by the first fathers of mankind. It is intended in this work to prove that far higher and more important records, those of the only true wisdom of man, are contained in the emblems of the constellations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
