Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the longstanding debate regarding the nature of Shangdi, the supreme deity in Chinese tradition. The author delves into ancient Chinese classics, imperial edicts, and prayers to examine the attributes and worship associated with Shangdi. The book argues that Shangdi is not the same being as Jehovah of the Bible, despite sharing certain characteristics and receiving similar forms of worship. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical sources, the author presents evidence to support the view that Shangdi is a distinct deity within the Chinese religious context. This meticulously researched book sheds light on the complex relationship between Chinese religious beliefs and the concept of a universal, all-powerful God. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
