Publisher's Synopsis
""Scripture Parallels In Ancient Classics: Or Bible Echoes"" is a book written by Craufurd Tait Ramage and first published in 1878. The book explores the similarities and parallels between the Bible and ancient classical literature, such as the works of Homer, Virgil, and Ovid. Ramage argues that these similarities are not coincidental, but rather evidence of the Bible's influence on ancient literature.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the Bible's influence on ancient literature. Ramage examines the themes of creation, the fall of man, the flood, and the redemption of humanity, and shows how these themes are echoed in classical literature. He also looks at the use of biblical language and imagery in classical literature, and the ways in which ancient writers used biblical stories and characters to convey their own messages.Throughout the book, Ramage provides numerous examples of these parallels, drawing on a wide range of classical texts. He also provides commentary and analysis of each example, helping readers to understand the significance of these similarities.""Scripture Parallels In Ancient Classics: Or Bible Echoes"" is a fascinating exploration of the relationship between the Bible and ancient literature, and an important contribution to the study of both.
