The manuscript is at least 1,600 \u003cbr\u003eyears old, possibly dating to the first century. This revelatory book provides the first ever translation from Syriac into English of a profound document—some twenty-nine chapters in length —that tells us the inside story of Jesus’ social, \u003cbr\u003efamily, and political life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Lost Gospel\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e takes the reader on an exciting historical adventure through this highly informative ancient manuscript. The authors were easily able to decode the basic symbolism, but what the authors eventually discovered is as surprising as it ground-breaking: the confirmation of Jesus' \u003cbr\u003emarriage to Mary Magdalene; the names of their two children; the towering presence of Mary Magdalene (who was a Gentile priestess), a serious plot on Jesus’ life in 19 C.E. prior to the crucifixion; an assassination plot against their children; Jesus’ connection to political figures at the highest level of the Roman Empire—Emperor \u003cbr\u003eTiberius and his protégé Sejanus; and a religious movement that antedates that of Paul—the Church of Mary Magdalene. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNone of these discoveries are the authors’ claims: they are what this ancient manuscript reveals now that it has been decoded. Part historical detective story, part travelogue about a journey into the heart of an ancient world, The Lost Gospel reveals a secret that's been hiding in plain sight for centuries. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pegasus Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47052210995440,"sku":"9781605986104","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781605986104_p0.jpg?v=1763829340","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781605986104","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
