Excerpt from Three Inquiries
It will be seen that I have added, besides the notes, between forty and fifty pages on topics intimately connected with the subjects dis cussed ih the work. In what I have written I have availed myself of the latest researches on the points discussed; and I feel that in that respect, at least, the matter added is of value.
I need say nothing in commendation of this work for it has had a wide circulation, and is known to be distinguished alike for its candor, its just criticisms, and its patient investigations. Mr. Balfour prized truth more than money, position or popularity and, therefore, he honestly sought for truth, and as honestly declared it to the world.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. Delving into the origins of the belief in the Devil and Satan, this book challenges the widespread notion that they are fallen angels eternally condemned to torment. The author meticulously examines the Bible, particularly Genesis Chapter 3, to demonstrate that there is no evidence to support this idea. Instead, the book argues that the serpent that tempted Eve in the garden was simply a physical animal created by God, and that the subsequent development of the concept of the Devil was influenced by pagan beliefs and cultural misinterpretations. The author meticulously analyzes relevant biblical passages and provides historical context to shed light on the evolution of this concept, tracing its roots back to ancient mythology and exploring its impact on religious doctrine and societal norms. This critical examination prompts readers to question long-held beliefs and encourages a deeper understanding of the origins and evolution of religious ideas.
