The Christ Myth: A Study is a book written by Elizabeth Edson Gibson Evans and published in the year 1900. The book explores the historical origins of the figure of Jesus Christ, examining the possibility that he may be a mythical figure rather than a historical one. Evans draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient religious texts, historical accounts, and archaeological evidence, to argue that the story of Jesus may have been created by early Christian communities as a way of expressing their beliefs and values.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the historical context in which the story of Jesus emerged, including the political and social conditions of the time. The second part examines the various sources that have been used to construct the story of Jesus, including the gospels, the epistles, and other early Christian writings. Evans argues that these sources are often contradictory and unreliable, and that they may have been influenced by other religious traditions.The third part of the book explores the implications of the Christ myth for modern Christianity. Evans argues that the mythic origins of the story of Jesus do not necessarily detract from its value as a source of spiritual inspiration, but rather provide a deeper understanding of the human need for myth and symbolism. She also suggests that a recognition of the mythic nature of the story of Jesus may help to bridge the gap between different religious traditions and foster greater understanding and tolerance among people of different faiths.Overall, The Christ Myth: A Study is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the origins and significance of the figure of Jesus Christ, and is sure to be of interest to anyone interested in the history of religion and spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
