The Annals of the World (Hardback)
Master Books commissioned this important literary work to be updated
from the 17th-century original Latin manuscript to modern English and
made available to the general public for the first time. In its pages
can be found the fascinating history of the ancient world from the
Genesis creation through the destruction of the Jerusalem temple. Find
Out:
- Why was Julius Caesar kidnapped in 75 B.C.?
- Why did Alexander the Great burn his ships in 326 B.C.?
- What really happened when the sun “went backward” as a sign to Hezekiah?
- What does secular history say about the darkness at the Crucifixion?
In the years 1650-1654, James Ussher set out to write a history of
the world from creation to A.D. 70. The result was published in 1658 as
the literary classic The Annals of the World.
This famous comprehensive history of the world, originally published in
Latin, offers a look at history rarely seen. Ussher traveled throughout
Europe, gathering much information from the actual historical
documents. Many of these documents are no longer available, having been
destroyed since the time of his research. Using the Bible as his
timeline, Ussher began with the death of Nebuchadnezzar as a reliable
date and worked backward through the genealogies of the Old Testament
to arrive at the date of creation - 4004 B.C. Integrating biblical
history (around 15% of the text is from the Bible) with secular (around
85% of the material is from non-biblical sources), Ussher wrote this
masterpiece.
Considered not only a literary classic, but also an accurate reference, The Annals of the World
was so highly regarded for its preciseness that the timeline from it
was included in the margins of many King James Version Bibles
throughout the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, calling to mind the fact
that the earth is only around 6,000 years old. The fact that Ussher’s
chronology has been deleted from Bibles is evidence of the Church’s
backsliding into the deceptive ideas of evolution.
The Annals of the World is a necessary addition to any church library,
pastor’s library, or any library - public or personal. The entire text
has been updated from 17th-century English to present-day vernacular in
a five-year project commissioned by Master Books. Containing many
human-interest stories from the original historical documents collected
by Ussher, this is more than just a history book - it’s a work of
history.
