Ladd's commentaries on the mythological aspects of Judaism and Christianity are illuminated by his depth of scriptural knowledge and thorough researches. This eclectic work examines extant writings of a variety of ancient civilizations to shed light upon the myths and stories of the Hebrews. Ladd looks into the ancient Chaldeans, the Egyptians, the Greeks and even the Hindus of the East to arrive at his conclusions. The author's desire is to uncover how Judaism and later on Christianity began, in the context of the religious and cultural events which preceded their establishment. Spending years amid volumes of disparate and obscure sources, Ladd sought to condense and combine their insights into this single book, that curious readers may discover such history with relative ease. Individual monuments and stone tablets, plus surviving examples of writing upon papyrus, are among the original sources Ladd consults. The Bible, from the life of Moses and the Exodus from Egypt onwards, is examined at length. The author disagreed with the conventional explanations, whether regarding the life of certain figures, or the authorship and origins of various texts. Thus, much of this work seeks to validate and support the author's assertions to the farthest extent possible.

This book, one of a series of books, reveals the secrets the Christian ministry does not want you to know. It is about the unknown writers of Holy Scriptures. From the earliest of times, the conquerors have had a hand in writing the history of their vanquished; hence, nine out of ten Christians don't know who wrote their Gospels. Today, even the clergy doesn't know as they regurgitate the lies that they were taught from their early years of inadequate religious inculcation (indoctrination). the Jews themselves looked upon the followers of Christ as a mere Israelitish sect--"The sect of the Nazarenes" (Acts 24:15). As stated in the Catholic Encyclopedia, they are "the believers in the promised Messiah" (Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. III, p. 713). Mankind, whose body is mortal, is promised immortality for his soul by a deceptive priest craft whose intentions are self-serving. What could possibly compel man to deceive, lie, and create fictitious histories? Food? Money? Sex? Profit? Prestige? All of the aforementioned? (cf. 2 Tim. 3:13). First of all is man's basic need: food. the common folk are now starving and disorderly as money is hard to obtain due to high interest rates, and upon this there are life-threatening droughts and a famine (cf. Deut. 7:1-2).

Conventional wisdom states that the Hebrew Scriptures only hint that there are persons of Yahveh. This book shows that Moses and other Bible writers wrote strikingly and often, both about the Trinity and the deity of the Messiah. The Old Testament is as explicit about the Trinity and the deity of the Messiah as is the New Testament. The reader of this book will come to know the Trinitarianism in the Hebrew Scriptures that Yahvists knew. The reader of this book will come to read the Bible the same way the inspired writers intended it to be read-as Trinitarian
