Publisher's summary

This extraordinary document represents a new form of historical research and straightens out many open questions and misinterpretations. It takes the form of direct dialogues between a modern researcher and a member of the Qumran Essene community. Alive around the time of Christ, this community has become the focus of ideas about the connection of Jesus' teachings to earlier traditions. This book gives a full description of the nature and purpose of the community and the birth and upbringing of Jesus and John the Baptist. Also, it gives Essene renderings of Key Old Testament stories concerning Moses, Ezekiel, Daniel, and others, plus startling insights into ancient history. This information is candid and for real, even about the Dead Sea Scrolls, and many Biblical images and statements are corrected and added to.

Great book. Horrible male narrator

Very disappointing that such good material could be given to such a narrator. He was very distracting. Sounded like he was reading to preschoolers.
However the book is five stars and I can’t wait to continue reading Dolores’ other books.

An essential book for any true seeker of the Jesus

If this regression is to be believed, and I don't see why not, this gives very valuable insight the community which helped to form Jesus' personality. Also an important insight into his purpose.

Feels much better

This first hand “correction” to the Biblical Jesus feels much better. I feel like I’ve just walked out of a session with the story chiropractor. The more ancient Bible stories also feel much closer to the truth. Today we know that almost nothing we learn in textbooks is true. Even the credit given to Atlantis! Wonderful. Thank you Sidee for sharing.

Absolutely, refreshing view of the Truth.

I loved this book because I have for a long time questioned the vitality of the stories relating to the topic of Jesus. I am motivated to do my own research to draw me own conclusions. I feel I have a strong starting point.

Narrator feedback

Choice of male narrator was odd. Having a southern US accent was hard to get used to narrating for a middle eastern character.

Please reconsider casting of the voices

The voice of the Essene character, who is supposed to be a Middle Eastern man who lived 2,000 years ago, is read in a heavy, monotone southern accent. This takes away so much from the story. The story itself is very interesting and worth the read
