'Using quotations from prophecies from various sources, many non-Christian, the author describes his understanding of the end of the world. He also contends that the Essene community at Qumran expected Jesus to be their Messiah in fulfillment of their interpretation of prophecy. Having stolen his not quite dead body, they spread the word of his "resurrecion", and with his "disciples" founded the Christian sect. Jesus allegedly failed to recover from his wounds and died at Qumran'. Bibliography; index.. Very Good+ in Very Good- dust jacket .
