First published in 1853, The Two Babylons is a religious work by the Scottish theologian Alexander Hislop, a prominent leader of the Presbyterian Free Church of Scotland. Hislop argues in this influential work that the Catholic Church and the trappings of the papacy have their roots in the religion of ancient Babylon as described in the Bible. Hislop draws many parallels in his comparison of the traditions, holidays, and ceremonies of the Catholic Church throughout history to the practices of the religion founded by the Biblical king Nimrod and his wife Semiramis. Hislop relies on the descriptions of the Babylonian religious traditions in the book of Revelation in the Bible and in the apostle Paul's writings from the first century. He was also inspired by the findings of English archaeologist Austen Henry Layard and his excavations at Nineveh, which was discovered in 1851. The author found many comparisons between the ancient gods found in the forgotten city and modern Catholic holidays and traditions. The Two Babylons was controversial when it was first published for its criticism of the Catholic Church and its theories continue to be debated to this day. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
Les deux babylones sans aucun doute, l'un des plus importants ouvrages de la littérature chrétienne, expose de façon détaillée la continuité de la tradition religieuse, immuable en ses grandes lignes des origines à nos jours. D'un style aisé, Alexandre Hislop analyse avec une grande clarté les croyances religieuses. Il aborde ce problème en érudit et justifie ses arguments par des notes marginales précises et rigoureuses. Sa compétence s'impose indiscutablement. L'auteur démontre d'une façon irréfutable que presque toutes les pratiques du culte romain proviennent du paganisme. Le voile est enfin levé sur bien des rites de l'Église catholique. De chapitre en chapitre, notre surprise va croissant en découvrant l'origine païenne des coutumes de la chrétienté, telles que le culte de la Vierge le sapin et la bûche de Noël, les oeufs de Pâques, &c. Nous constatons que la vénération de la Vierge n'est en réalité que l'adoration de la Vénus antique ou d'Astarté et qu'elle provient directement de Babylone. Certes, cette ville n'est aujourd'hui qu'un monceau de ruines, mais les idées, les conceptions élaborées en son sein, existent toujours et sont partagées en toute bonne foi par la majorité de nos contemporains. Alexandre Hislop nous montre l'influence incroyable des traditions d'origine babylonienne sur les pratiques religieuses. Qui, en effet, ne désire connaître la signification réelle de ses croyances. Sans se laisser détourner de ce but, il nous convainc magistralement de la colossale influence encore exercée sur notre monde moderne par la Babylone antique. Notre espoir est que ce livre remarquable soit lu et médité par tous ceux qui cherchent vraiment à approfondir leur foi.
