Raising The Devil An Astronomical-Theological Discourse On The Temptation Of Christ

Raising The Devil is a book written by Rev. Robert Taylor that provides an astronomical-theological discourse on the temptation of Christ. The book explores the story of Jesus being tempted by the devil in the wilderness and examines the symbolism and deeper meanings behind this story. Rev. Taylor argues that the story is not meant to be taken literally but is instead a metaphorical representation of the struggle between good and evil in the human psyche. He uses astronomical and astrological symbolism to support his arguments and draws on a wide range of religious and philosophical traditions to provide a comprehensive analysis of the story.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the temptation of Christ. Topics covered include the significance of the number 40, the symbolism of the devil, and the role of the wilderness in the story. Raising The Devil is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges readers to think deeply about the meaning of the temptation of Christ and its relevance to their own lives. It is recommended for anyone interested in theology, philosophy, or spirituality.THIS 38 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Devil's Pulpit: Or Astro-Theological Sermons, by Rev. Robert Taylor.
