Jesus & the riddle of the Dead Sea Scrolls : unlocking the secrets of his life story

by Barbara Thiering

Analysing the Dead Sea Scrolls and the New Testament, this study presents an alternative reading of the origins of Christianity, arguing that a decoded subtext reveals the historical, human life of Jesus rather than a series of supernatural events.
