The Story Of Ahikar (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162853819)

The Story of Ahikar is a book written by Rutherford H. Platt that tells the story of Ahikar, a wise and wealthy man who served as a counselor to the Assyrian king. The book is based on an ancient text that was discovered in the late 19th century and has been translated into many languages. In the story, Ahikar is falsely accused of treason by his nephew and is exiled from the kingdom. He travels to Egypt and becomes a trusted advisor to the Pharaoh, using his wisdom and wit to solve problems and gain favor. Eventually, Ahikar is able to clear his name and return to Assyria, where he continues to serve as a counselor to the king. The book is a fascinating glimpse into ancient Middle Eastern culture and the wisdom of the past.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Forgotten Books of Eden, by Rutherford H. Platt.
