From The Book

It's the "greatest story never told." The story of Lilith - God's wife.

Author Lonnie Hicks, in a work of historical fiction, gives us an alternative version to the birth of concepts involving good and evil from one of the Bible's most controversial and influential characters.

Through the eyes of Lilith, the back-stories to many of the Bible's major events are revealed --including the notions of good and evil--in this ground-breaking and controversial new literary work.

The bewitchment of Lilith by Lucifer, God's most favored angel, sets into motion a chain of events where a child is conceived and God exiles both to Earth after an all-out war in heaven. At the end of the celestial bloodshed, Lucifer, Lilith, and all the angels who sided with them are transmogrified into hideous beasts and banished to the still volcanically violent Earth. Lucifer becomes a reddened, horned monster with the face goat and a pitchfork tail, while Lilith is doomed to crawl on her belly as a serpent.

Thus begins an engrossing retelling of creation, from the development of Earth to the evolution of humanity, to Jesus' role on Earth.

In "The Gospel According to Lilith," Hicks' mythical exploration of the origins of good and evil give readers a fresh, bold and engrossing new point of view regarding God, the Creation, and even Lucifer, as we discover that Lilith is actually the silent heroine of both the old and new testaments in the battle between God and Lucifer for the souls of humankind.

Her emergence saves mankind and offers us new understandings of good and evil in this astounding work and it history not only as a religious document but its ideas presented as a work of literature.

In an astounding new look at the bible, Hicks shows us that the literary side of bible and its roots show us that it was conceived as a writing intended to introduce revolutionary new ideas to the world and within its pages are the ideas which fueled the American revolution thousands of years later. Thomas Jefferson, famously, used the bible to form the basic politic ideas which are embedded in the Constitution of the United States.

If you think you know the Bible, read this book to gain perspective on Lilith and her influence on many of the Bible's major story lines and on American history and literature. Hicks, in a final assertion states, "The bible seen as a literary work, is the back drop for many of the basic ideas of implied in the concept of "The Great American Novel. Hicks's blog on this same topic appears at www.lonniehicks.com, the authors website.
