The Worship of the Serpent Traced Throughout the World: Attesting the Temptation and Fall of Man By the Instrumentality of a Serpent Tempter (Classic Reprint)
(The deception of Eve byS atan, through the instrumentalit...)
The deception of Eve byS atan, through the instrumentality of a serpent, has ever been an object of ridicule with the profane, who, reading without reflection, or reflecting without reading, deem that a foolishness which they cannot understand, or that a stumbling-block which they cannot explain away. Thus faith, which had defied the sophistry of the acutest sceptic, has been sometimes shaken by an incredulous sneer: and Christians, who would have scorned to be argued out of their religion, have not been ashamed to be laughed out of it. To establish by the testimony of heathen authorities the credibility of the Temptation andF all of Man in Paradise, through the agency of Satan in a serpents fomiy is my endeavour in the following Treatise: noris it with a vain confidence that every argument adduced is either new or conchmoe.
