Examination Of The Passages In The New Testament, Quoted From The Old And Called Prophecies Concerning Jesus Christ - Paperback

by Thomas Paine (Author)

""Examination of the Passages in the New Testament, Quoted from the Old and Called Prophecies Concerning Jesus Christ"" is a book by Thomas Paine. The book is an analysis of the biblical passages in the New Testament that are said to be prophecies about Jesus Christ, which are quoted from the Old Testament. Paine examines these passages in detail and argues that they are not actually prophecies about Jesus, but rather, they are misinterpretations of the original texts. He argues that the authors of the New Testament took these passages out of context and used them to support their own beliefs about Jesus, rather than accurately interpreting the original meaning of the texts. The book is a critical analysis of the New Testament and its use of Old Testament prophecies, and it challenges traditional Christian beliefs about Jesus and the Bible.To Which Is Prefixed An Essay On Dream, Showing By What Operation Of The Mind A Dream Is Produced In Sleep, And Applying The Same To The Account Of Dreams In The New Testament; With An Appendix Containing My Private Thoughts Of A Future State, And Remarks On The Contradictory Doctrine In The Books Of Matthew And Mark.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
