Synopsis
"To deny a people the man whom it praises as the greatest of its sons is not a deed to be undertaken lightheartedly--especially by one belonging to that people," states Sigmund Freud in Moses & Monotheism . Freud puts forth the idea that Moses was an Egyptian nobleman, and that the Jewish religion was Egyptian in origin in this controversial essay.
