About this listen

In a startling follow-up to the New York Times best-seller The Jesus Family Tomb, a historical detective story that unravels a newly translated document filled with startling revelations and fascinating detail about the life and times of Jesus.

Waiting to be rediscovered in the British Library is an ancient manuscript of the early Church, copied by an anonymous monk. The manuscript is at least 1,450 years old, possibly dating to the first century, Jesus' lifetime. And now, The Lost Gospel provides the first-ever translation from Syriac into English of this unique document that tells the inside story of Jesus' social, family, and political life.

The Lost Gospel takes listeners on an unparalleled historical adventure through a paradigm-shifting manuscript. What the authors eventually discover is astounding: confirmation of Jesus' marriage to Mary the Magdalene; the names of their two children; the towering presence of Mary the Magdalene; a previously unknown plot on Jesus' life, thirteen years prior to the crucifixion; an assassination attempt against Mary the Magdalene and their children; Jesus' connection to political figures at the highest level of the Roman Empire; and a religious movement that antedates that of Paul - the Church of Mary the Magdalene. Part historical detective story, part modern adventure, The Lost Gospel reveals secrets that have been hiding in plain sight for millennia.

For any who is open to questions about the foundations of about Christianity I highly recommend this book. If you truly believe that the truth is revealed in your copy of the Bible go no further else have your belief system called into question.

Only for those with a truly open mind

This is a fascinating incite into the political implications of the early faith of Christianity. It presents the decoding of early text and the academic arguements for their justification clearly to the lay person. it makes you question eerything that the Christian Church believes, yet still with the belief in Jesus' work. i enjoyed listening to this book and will recommend this to others.

It's amazing how, what you are taught as a child, indotronates you. And it's even more amazing to shat lengths, authorities or the people in power will go to, to control the masses. This book is a must read and I for one, will be studying it in more detail.

Food for thought.
