Zaraoustra, Philo, The Achaemenids, And Israel: Being A Treatise Upon The Antiquity And Influence Of The Avesta (1906) is a scholarly work by Lawrence Heyworth Mills. The book explores the ancient religious text of the Avesta, which is the primary scripture of Zoroastrianism. Mills examines the influence of the Avesta on other religions, including Judaism, and discusses the similarities and differences between the two. He also explores the influence of the Achaemenid Empire, which was the dominant power in the region during the time of the Avesta's composition, on the development of the text. The book provides a detailed analysis of the historical and cultural contexts in which the Avesta was created, and sheds light on the complex relationships between different religious traditions in the ancient Near East. Overall, Zaraoustra, Philo, The Achaemenids, And Israel is an important contribution to the field of religious studies and provides valuable insights into the history of Zoroastrianism and its impact on other religions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
