For seventeen centuries, a crucial truth about the God of the Bible has been buried. We have been taught a version of history that is incomplete. This book uncovers the rest of the story.

The Bible presents a complex and majestic portrait of God: a supreme Father who presides over a heavenly host, who speaks through a divine Son, and whose eternal nature is not static, but dynamic and relational. Yet, this rich, hierarchical worldview seems to clash with the rigid, metaphysical doctrines of later creeds. For countless believers, this has created a quiet tension between the God they read about in Scripture and the God they are taught about in church.

In this groundbreaking work of historical and theological recovery, Eliseo Rodriguez unearths the original, forgotten framework of the early faith: Christian Monolatry.

Journeying from the divine council of the Old Testament and the vibrant messianic expectations of the Dead Sea Scrolls to the fiery debates of the fourth century, Monolatry meticulously reconstructs the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. It demonstrates that the apostles and the earliest Church Fathers understood the Father as the one, supreme God, and His Son, Yeshua, as the distinct, divine, and subordinate agent through whom He reveals Himself to the world.

This book proves that this ancient, biblical model was not defeated by superior argument; it was systematically overwritten by the political power of the Roman Empire, which enforced a new, philosophical theology and branded the original faith as a "godless heresy."

In this book, you will discover:

• The overwhelming biblical evidence for a divine council and a plurality of divine beings under one supreme God.
• How the "two YHWHs" of Genesis and the Angel of the Lord point directly to the pre-existent Son.
• The forgotten theology of the early Church Fathers, who affirmed a divine hierarchy long before the Trinity was formulated.
• The true story of the Council of Nicaea, as told through the eyes of its most important witness, Eusebius.
• How the theological shift of Athanasius and the imperial decrees of Theodosius created a new orthodoxy and buried the original faith.

Monolatry is more than a historical expos
