Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an historic analysis of presumptuous sins. Historically, the author traces the theme of presumption through myriad religious texts as well as relevant pop culture and philosophical prisms. They delineate the characteristics of this sin and how it was perceived to manifest across time, labelling presumption as a sin of hubris born from pride. Presumption is framed as a chief sin, one from which other sins could develop or grow. The author also argues that the consequences of presumptuous sins can be dire and far reaching, citing examples from sacred texts to show the perceived consequences of presumptuous sins. Overall, this book is a thorough and detailed examination of the sin of presumption and will appeal to religious scholars, historians, and casual readers alike.
