Quote:
In this long-awaited sequel to James the Brother of Jesus, Robert Eisenman’s extraordinary revelations about the leadership of the early Christian Church cast a revealing light over New Testament documents, with far-reaching implications. Eisenman presents a full examination of James’s relationship to the Dead Sea Scrolls, and in revealing the true historical James, he demonstrates how he has also discovered the true historical Jesus. This is the real history of Palestine in the first century. The author exposes the deliberate falsifications of New Testament documents, showing the almost absurd and certainly trivializing way in which Jesus was presented in the Gospels. He describes how Peter, a prototypical Essene, was used – for example, in the Gospels and the Book of Acts – as the mouthpiece for anti-Semitism. He decodes many of the esoteric references in the Scrolls which found their way into the Gospels, and draws some dramatic conclusions from them. He also explains why the recent, almost miraculously discovered “James Ossuary” is a fraud! This groundbreaking work of historical detection, with its challenging revelations, will not disappoint Eisenman’s many followers.
