The Ancient Origins of Modern Holidays draws from the Bible and Jewish sources on what has always been defined as paganism and idolatry.

Modern man has a problem with knowledge. He cannot accept God's word about the world or anything else, so anything that points to God must be called into question.

This book will lead the listener to understand that this problem of knowledge underlies the isolation and self-torment of modern man.
