Publisher's Synopsis

Ophiolatreia As An Extraordinary Subject Of Universal Prevalence is a book written by Hargrave Jennings. The book explores the subject of ophiolatry, which is the worship of serpents, and its prevalence throughout history and across cultures. The author delves into the symbolism and mythology surrounding serpents, and how they have been revered and feared by different societies. The book also examines the role of serpents in various religious traditions, including ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Indian religions, as well as in Christianity and Freemasonry. The author argues that ophiolatry is an important subject that has been largely ignored by scholars and historians, and that it has played a significant role in shaping human culture and spirituality. Overall, Ophiolatreia As An Extraordinary Subject Of Universal Prevalence is a fascinating and insightful exploration of a little-known but important aspect of human history and religion.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Ophiolatreia, by Hargrave Jennings.
