The Bible Unmasked is a book written by Joseph Lewis that aims to critically examine the Bible and reveal its flaws, inconsistencies, and contradictions. The author argues that the Bible is not a divinely inspired text but rather a collection of myths, legends, and historical inaccuracies. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of the Bible, such as its creation story, the Ten Commandments, and the life of Jesus Christ. The author uses historical, scientific, and philosophical arguments to debunk the Bible's claims and to offer alternative explanations for the events and characters described in the text. The book is intended for readers who are interested in exploring the Bible from a critical and skeptical perspective and who are willing to challenge their own beliefs and assumptions about religion and faith.Contents: Abram and Sarai; Isaac and Rebekah; Incest, or Lot and His Daughters; Jacob, Leah and Rachel; Rape of Dinah; Joseph and Potiphar's Wife; Judah and Tamar; 19th Chapter of Judges; King David and His Wives; Rape of Tamar; Story of Ruth; King Solomon and His Songs; Book of Esther, New Testament; Virgin Birth; Elizabeth, Mary and the Angel Gabriel; Jesus and the Sinner, Creed of Science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
