Oedipus Judaicus is a book written by W. Drummond that explores the similarities between the Greek myth of Oedipus and the biblical story of Joseph. The book argues that both stories share similar themes, including fate, prophecy, and the struggle between free will and divine intervention. Drummond also examines the historical and cultural context of both stories, exploring how they reflect the beliefs and values of their respective societies. Ultimately, Oedipus Judaicus offers a thought-provoking analysis of these two ancient tales and their enduring relevance to contemporary society.1811. In this work it is found the author has adopted the opinion that the Sacred Writers wrote chiefly, if not entirely, allegorical compositions. He recollects that Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians; and he expected to find traces of that wisdom in his works. The learned among the ancient Egyptians were pure theists. They were deeply skilled in the sciences; but they carefully concealed their mysterious learning under innumerable symbols and allegories. May we not look for the same things in the writings which are ascribed to the Jewish lawgiver? This is what Drummond has done in this book.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
