Without me straying into the political here, I would think there are several reversals in the biblical tradition that would confound simple allegory with the current situation but that’s probably debate for another site.That said, a lot of the legends of the time, the lions paw, the wisdom of Solomon, David & Goliath are not particularly controversial or relatable to any particular individual. Or more likely relatable to every faction. They’re just good stories.Also let’s not get started on the fact that every one of Moses’ plagues are spells in the PHB.Even if all that wasn’t the case, an independent publisher isn’t required to please everyone to justify sharing their work. if it’s good enough quality and of interest to enough people. Both of which would be a matter for posterity.</blockquote>
