Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 187
This explosive work of history unearths clues that finally demonstrate the truth about one of the world's great religions: that it was born out of the conflict between the Romans and messianic Jews who fought a bitter war with each other during the first century. The Romans employed a tactic they routinely used to conquer and absorb other nations: they grafted their imperial rule onto the religion of the conquered.

Thoroughly Intrigued
Revisado: 07-14-22
I bought this book think it would be an entertaining theory but not expecting to take it seriously. Boy was I wrong. Within the first five minutes I had to hit pause and was like “holy crap he’s right on that point”. The typified the rest of the book. He brings up solid evidence and a good theory on where Christianity possibly cake from. I’m not a scholar but I’d recommend this book. It gives good food for thought on what we think we know about christianity and Going forward I’ll always examine new historical evidence against this theory… it’s that compelling.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 32
Since they were first discovered in the caves at Qumran, in 1947, the Dead Sea Scrolls have aroused more fascination - and more controversy - than perhaps any other archaeological find. They appear to have been hidden in the Judean desert by the Essenes, a Jewish sect that existed around the time of Jesus, and they continue to inspire veneration and conspiracy theories to this day. John Collins tells the story of the bitter conflicts that have swirled around the scrolls since their startling discovery, and sheds light on their true significance for Jewish and Christian history.

Great Introduction
Revisado: 07-14-22
This is a good intro to the dead sea scrolls. It covers their finding and the research on them. It covers so of the theological implication of them as well. This book is a great place to start. A must read for anyone interested in the topic. Especially christians.

Only get this recording if you find an unwavering backdrop of "tv static" and chatting technicians to be in anyway desirable.
