Lost Light: An Interpretation of Ancient Scriptures

by Alvin Boyd Kuhn

Lost Light: An Interpretation of Ancient Scriptures, written by author Alvin Boyd Kuhn, is centered around his belief that the bible is not actually based on Judea, but is actually founded from Egyptian origin. Kuhn argues that he can prove that the bible is made up largely of ancient Egyptian texts. This is a key work by author Alvin Boyd Kuhn and is popular among individuals interested in his alternative biblical theories. Many readers often purchase Lost Light with Kuhn's other highly acclaimed title Shadow of the Third Century, which is also available from FQ Classics.

Bible is based on Celestial Allegory

If you think the Christian bible is hard to understand this book helps to understand it. All religion is based on celestial allegory. All religion teaches the same thing.
When you speak star myth you speak the language of God.

Did he get paid by the word? Lots of repetition but a very interesting premise.

So, we should all go back to worshiping the sun? This book was too esoteric for even me. I was excited to read this but I found it disappointing. I will not be reading anything else by this author.

[Gabriel Ben-Shalom · Rating 5 out of 5]

The most compelling cross-examination of ancient scriptures from Egypt to Greece To Hebrew, Gnostic and finally the Christian tradition. Showing how it is all one story - the story in the incarnation - the dark night of the soul in Earth (death, underworld) and its subsequent evolution to everlasting life and light in Heaven. A must read for any bible scholars! Prepare to lose all notions of the historicity of the bible. It is sacred truth, not literal history these texts expound.
