Default C14 and the "Teacher of Righteousness" (1st CE?)

An interesting article on attempts to date
"the Teacher of Righteousness" from the
Dead Sea Scrolls is located here.

It seems as if the author is pushing a first
century chronology for "the teacher of qumran"
following C14 analyses.

FWIW the Scholarly Questions and Comments page of her website is interesting.

RUN.

(FWIW, the only Thiering I've read was a much earlier edition of Jesus the Man (or via: amazon.co.uk))

Jesus the Man is identical to Jesus & the Riddle of the Dead Sea Scrolls: Unlocking th Secrets of His Life Story (or via: amazon.co.uk)

Theiring seems to have few if any followers. From her "Scholarly Questions and Answers" page:

Quote:
... full written evidence, meeting the highest standard of proof, is available that Jesus died in Rome in the 70’s AD. From that evidence, it may be supposed that his bones were substituted for those of Peter and are now in St Peter’s basilica in Rome. Readers of this site will know why that can be said.
