A BOOK ABOUT JESUS AND THE HISTORY OF CHRISTIAN SYMBOLS
Through a deep and well-documented journey, the importance of the different symbols of Jesus is revealed — such as the fish, the water, the serpent, the dove, the ICHTHYS, the IHS monogram, the Vesica Piscis, and many other hidden symbols that explain the mysteries of life, death, transformation, and divinity.
The central theme revolves around the relationship between Jesus and the fish, but it is not limited to Christianity. The figure of the fish-god or divine fisherman is traced across multiple traditions: from Vishnu and Buddha to Oannes and Dagon. And the result is astonishing!
From Genesis to the Gospels, from the ancient Chaldean myths to Eastern legends, the fish appears as a sign of salvation, divine birth, and connection with the beyond.
WHY IS JESUS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FISH? – THE SYMBOLS OF JESUS
You will discover how, before the Cross, the fish was the first emblem of the early Christians, but also a sacred symbol present in the most ancient traditions of humanity.
Because the fish symbol is a mystery that unites religions through time. And because, just like Jesus, the fish is the portal between two worlds: the visible and the invisible, life and eternity.
Based on historical texts published in The Open Court in the early 20th century — by Paul Carus and other renowned authors — this edition compiles and enriches that legacy, creating a marvelous work.
