THE PROPHET YAHYA
(JOHN THE BAPTIST)
“The three essays by Agron Belica included in this little volume represent preparatory steps in the assembling of his revolutionary theories about John the Baptist/Yahya. The results of his studies achieved their full treatment in The Crucifixion: Mistaken Identity?, a controversial book vigorously challenges the conventional view of John as little more than the baptizer of Jesus and the herald of his messiahship. The John/Yahya that Belica’s work has brought forth from the shadows of history is a major prophet in his own right with an independent stature and mission. These articles concentrate principally on the Islamic side of his theses.” —Dr. Jay R. Crook, author of The Bible: An Islamic Perspective series
