Book Description
Excerpt from The Religion of Babylonia and Assyria, Especially in Its Relations to Israel: Five Lectures Delivered at Harvard University IN the month of July, 1908, I delivered at Harvard University, in the Summer School Of Theology, five lectures which are now put into this little book. They are printed substantially as they were delivered, though a few passages have been several times rewritten in an earnest endeavor after lucidity and cogency. I am grateful to my Harvard colleagues for this pleasant opportunity to associate myself for even a brief season with a great school Of scholars with whom my relations have always been friendly, and from whom I have had much stimulus and not a little encouragement. But for their courteous invitation I should probably not have turned aside from other labors to write this little essay.

Religious and Moral Ideas in Babylonia and Assyria (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 146
Book Description
Excerpt from Religious and Moral Ideas in Babylonia and Assyria The names of mighty Babylon and proud Assyria will never be forgotten, and their memory will never cease among men. So long as modern civilization lasts; so long as Christianity sways men's hearts; and so long as the Bible is read, Babylonia and Assyria, Nineveh and Babylon will be names to conjure with. The excavations begun in the mounds of the Tigris Euphrates valley not more than a century ago have revealed many things about these ancient peoples. Much more remains. To be done. There are still many problems to be solved, many gaps to be filled, and many phenomena to be interpreted. This little book, by a student and lover of these ancient peoples, can give only a glimpse of one of the most fascinating problems of Semitic culture. The religious and moral ideas in Babylonia and Assyria, not only because of their close and unique relation to the Old Testament, and through it to the New Testa ment and to Christianity, but also because of them selves, are second to none in human interest.

Excerpt from Aspects of Religious Belief and Practice in Babylonia and Assyria My profound thanks are due to my esteemed friend Prof. C. H. Toy for the careful revision that he has given to my manuscript, in the course of which he made a large number of valuable suggestions, bearing both on the matter and on the form of presentation, while that dearest and rarest of men, who has been my guide, philosopher, and friend during my career, and who has permitted me to grace this volume by inscribing his name on the dedication page, has added to the heavy debt that I already owe him - a debt too large for me to even pay the interest thereof - by submitting the manuscript to a final and critical examination. How much this has meant, those who know Dr. Fumees need not be told. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He has set himself a more prosaic and less ambitious task that, namely, of collecting materials which may serve as a portion of the data, when the time comes, if it ever comes, for the construction of the science in question. A building cannot be erected without materials; a true science cannot be constructed with out ample data.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Religion of Babylonia and Assyria Position, and Period. - The religion of the Babylonians and Assyrians was the polytheistic faith professed by the peoples inhabiting the Tigris and Euphrates valleys from what may be regarded as the dawn of history until the Christian era began, or, at least, until the inhabitants were brought under the influence of Christianity. The chronological period covered may be roughly estimated at about 5000 years. The belief of the people, at the end of that time, being Babylonian heathenism leavened with Judaism, the country was probably ripe for the reception of the new faith.
