Sorry can't say why or when. I am not a student of history haven't time to look up. My interest in tracing Jesus is how I came about thetRoman government. History does not prove there was such a man. There was is a book written by Bernard Springer, titled "Secret sects of Syria and Lebanon," quoting from an early Masonic book that seemed germane to the Jesus story. Quote:"But Jehovah prospered the seed of the Essenians, in holiness and love, for many generations.Then came the chief of the angels, according to the commandments of God, to take up an heir to the Voice of Jehovah. And in four generations more, an heir was born, and named Joshua, and he was the child of Joseph and Mara , devout worshippers of Jehovah, who stood aloof from all other people save the Essenians. And this Joshua, in Nazareth, reestablished Jehovah, and restored many of the rites and ceremonies. In the thirty sixth year of his age he was stoned to death in Jerusalem.
This is the only thing close to Jesus outside the Caesar family writings of the bible and Josephus who was also a Caesar descendant. |
