Author’s Note:
This book is an attempt to explain to any open-minded, intelligent “man in the street” the real nature and teachings of one of the most wonderful, and certainly one of the most misunderstood, books ever written: The “Book of Genesis.”
It deals only with the first three chapters. It is based entirely on a close study of the original Hebrew text, and the writer’s aim is simply and solely to show what that text actually says and teaches, and then to leave it to the judgement of the reader. The type of reader who “dotes on the occult” will he disappointed in this book. It is neither occult nor mystic. Like good old 18th century Bishop Berkeley, the author is the “sworn enemy of all that is not clear, precise, completely and universally intelligible, and in harmony with that famous ‘common sense’ which has always been the guardian deity of British thought.”
