Jesus and the Essenes: Fresh Insights into Christ's Ministry and the Dead Sea Scrolls

The authorised version of the origins of Christianity, and of the content of Jesus' teaching is the result of political wrangling in the early Church. The emergence of the Dead Sea Scrolls, carefully kept quiet, has opened Pandora's Box, and has shown how much dogma and censorship there is in the Church. Jesus and the Essenes gives a detailed account of Jesus as a person, of his acts as they were, and of the daily realities of Israel at that time.
