In this book, F.-K. made an attempt to prove that in the prophetic literature, behind the imaginary historical figures, pagan gods of Ancient Palestine had been hidden, whose images and cults had lost their meaning, being supplanted by the Jewish god Yahweh. According to the author, in the veneration of Jesus, the ancient Judeo-Israeli cult of the god Jesus, close to the veneration of Joshua, was revived. The basis for this hypothesis is a passage in the Gospel of Luke: “it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead; and of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again” (Luke 9: 7-8).
